bio quiz 2.4

QuestionAnswer
what are the two types of reproduction? asexual and sexual!
how many parents in asexual reproduction? ONE
how many parents in sexual reproduction? TWO
what happens with genetics in asexual reproduction? genetically identical offspring
what happens with genetics in sexual reproduction? offspring have DNA from both parents (genetic diversity)
what process does asexual reproduction involve? cell division
what process does sexual reproduction involve? involves cell division and more - meiosis & fertilization (takes longer, more complex)
what kind of cells do asexual reproduction? prokaryotic organisms (binary fission) + eukaryotic organisms (mitosis & cytokinesis), unicellular organisms, some multicellular organisms
what kind of cells do sexual reproduction? only eukaryotes, most multicellular organisms
please make sure to look at the diagram in the notes and on the worksheets of everything!! yes maam!
what is sexual reproduction? meiosis and fertilization to make gametes, join gametes together
what is a gamete? reproductive cell (egg/sperm) haploid
what is a somatic cell? non-productive cell (body cell) diploid
what is fertilization? process of egg and sperm combining to make zygote (fertilized egg)
what is a haploid? describes a cell that has one set of chromosomes, one of each type of chromosome for that organism.
what is a diploid? describes a cell that has two sets of chromosomes, two of each type of chromosome for that organism.
what does 'n' usually mean? what does it mean in diploid? a set of chromosomes. in diploids its 2n because cell gets 1 from each parent.
what are homologous chromosomes? (2) similar in size and shape (they look alike), contains similar genes NOT identical.
where do homologous chromosomes exist? in diploid cells, one from egg, one from sperm
what is a tetrad? pair of double rod homologous chromosomes attached to each other, 4 rods total.
what is crossing over? pieces of homologous chromosomes within a tetrad break off & trade places.
mitotic cell cycle diploid to haploid correlation 1 diploid cell (2n) -> 2 diploid cell (2n)
meiotic cell cycle diploid to haploid correlation 1 diploid cell (2n) -> 4 haploid cells (n)
what are somatic cells? diploid or haploid? mitotic or meiotic? nonproductive cells/body cells | always diploid | mitotic
what are gametes? diploid or haploid? mitotic or meiotic? reproductive cells (egg & sperm) | always haploid | meiotic
what does sexual reproduction (meiosis & fertilization) lead to? genetic recombination
what does genetic recombination lead to? greater genetic diversity
why does genetic diversity happen? (2) it's a different outcome because of meiosis (crossing over & random arrangement of chromosomes) - variety in gametes. | fertilization, randomness of which egg and sperm will fuse.
changes in chromosome number & structure is called ___ mutations
what is nondisjunction? when can this happen? what does it result in? when chromosomes/chromatids do NOT separate properly during meiosis | happens during meiosis 1 & 2 | results in monosomy (missing one chromosome 2n-1) or trisomy (one extra chromosome 2n+1)
what can nondisjunction cause? cause miscarriage or certain differences in offspring (some called genetic conditions), can affect sex chromosomes.
what do chromosome structure mutations affect? chunks of chromosomes (multiple genes)
what are the mutations that can happen? 1) deletion: missing a piece 2) duplication: piece doubled 3) inversion: pieces within one chromosome switch places 4) translocation: pieces from 2 different non homologous chromosomes get exchanged. DIFF from crossing over!!
what is the result of mutations in offspring? various differences in offspring of genetic conditions or miscarriages.
make sure you go over Meisois I & II on the worksheet. diagrams especially and comparing mitosis/meiosis yes
what happens in prophase I of meiosis? chromatin coils/condenses into chromosomes | nuclear membrane disappears | centrioles move to opposite sides or poles of cell, sets up spindle fibers. PLUS homologous chromosomes pair up forming tetrads, crossing over occurs.
what happens in metaphase I of meiosis? paired homologous chromosomes (tetrads) line up
what happens in anaphase I of meiosis? double rod chromosomes separate from each other
what happens in telephase I of meiosis? everything in mitosis except for result - made 2 haploid cells - already cut chromosome number in half.
what happens in prophase II? (4) chromatin coils/condenses into chromosomes | nuclear membrane disappears | centrioles move to opposite sides or poles of cell | sets up spindle fibers.
what happens in metaphase II of meiosis? (2) spindle fibers attach to centrometers and help chromosomes move into place | chromosomes line up single files in center of cell.
what happens in anaphase II of meiosis (1)? double rod chromosomes split into single rod chromosomes which are pulled to opposite sides of the cell by spindle fibers / sister chromatids separate and are pulled to opposites by spindle fibers
what happens in telephase II of meiosis? (4) chromosomes reach opposite ends of cells, uncoiling/uncondensing stopping tightly packed | chromatin is not in shape of chromosomes/reverting to chromatin state | new nucleus forms around each set of chromosomes (creates 2 nuclei) | spindle fibers go away
