Meiosis BLGY
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Where does Meiosis occur in Humans? | Gametes/Ovaries (Eggs) & in the testicles of the men. |
| Where does Meiosis occur in Plants? | The anthers (male) & carpels (female) |
| How do yeast benefit from Meiosis? | |
| Must we produce 1N Gametes to maintain chromosome number from generation to generation? | Yes. |
| Does Non-Disjunction during Meiosis lead to Aneuploidy and Genetic disorders? | Yes. |
| When do Homologous chromosomes separate? Meiosis I, or Meiosis II? | Meiosis I |
| Do sister chromosomes separate during Meiosis I or Meiosis II? | Meiosis II (Anaphase II) |
| Does Meiosis generate genetic variation in populations? | Yes. |
| How are new allele combinations generated on each homologous chromosome? | Crossing-Over |
| Why is genetic variation beneficial for populations? | Because it helps the population to natrually select. |
| Can the chromosomes in your haploid gametes you produce have alleles from both of your parents chromosomes due to crossing over? | Yes. |
| Can your genome contain chromosomes from each of your four grandparents? | Yes. |
