Question
Answer
Metaphase 1   During Metaphase 1, spindle fibers attach to the chromosomes. The homologous chromosomes align at the equator of the cell.  
🗑
Name the different phases of Meiosis 2 in order.   Prophase 2, Metaphase 2, Anaphase 2, Telophase 2, and Cytokinesis  
🗑
Gametes   Gametes are egg and sperm.  
🗑
What is the production of egg cells called?   Oogenesis  
🗑
What is a diploid number and what is a haploid number?   A diploid number is a term used to a cell that contains both sets of homologous chromosomes. A haploid cell that contains only a single set of chromosomes.  
🗑
Name the different phases of Meiosis 2 in order.   Prophase 2, Metaphase 2, Anaphase 2, Telophase 2, and Cytokinesis  
🗑
Prophase 1   During Prophase 1, each chromosome pairs with its corresponding homologous chromosome to form a tetrad.  
🗑
Metaphase 1   During Metaphase 1, spindle fibers attach to the chromosomes. The homologous chromosomes align at the equator of the cell.  
🗑
Tetrads   Tetrads are the two homologous chromosomes that are attached together. Also called synapsis.  
🗑
Anaphase 1   During Anaphase 1, the fibers pull the homologus chromosomes toward opposite ends of the cell  
🗑
Telophase 1   During Telophase 1, nuclear membranes form, and the the cell separates into two genetically different cells.  
🗑
Prophase 2   Nuclear envelope fragments, and the spindle forms.  
🗑
Metaphase 2   Chromosomes align along the equator of the cell.  
🗑
Anaphase 2   Sister chromatids separate and move to opp. poles of the cell.  
🗑
Telophase 2   The nuclear envelope assembles ad chromosomes de-condenses and the spindle disappears.  
🗑
Cytokinesis   divides the cell into two, resulting into four haploid daughter cells  
🗑
Homologous   A term used to refer to chromosomes that each have a corresponding chromosome from the opposite sex parent  
🗑
Chromatids   A chromatid is one of the two identical sister parts of a duplicated chromosome.  
🗑
Alleles   One of the numbers of the different forms of a genes.  
🗑
Somatic Cells   Body Cells  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
