MEIOSISMEIOSIS

Organisms reproduce by joining gametes

Gametes are haploid

8/14/2019 Ch 7 .1 ,7 .2


MeiosisMeiosis

• Form of cell division whereone cell produces fourgametes, containing half thegenetic material of theparent cell.

Meiosis VS MitosisMeiosis VS Mitosis

1. Mitosis end result is 2identical daughter cells

Meiosis end result is 4genetically different cells

2.Mitosis occurs in somatic

cellsMeiosis occurs in gametes

3.Mitosis results in 2 diploid

MeiosisMeiosis

Meiosis divided into twosections with a total of eightphases.

Meiosis 1

Meiosis II These phases are continuous

and flow one right after the

other.

RESULTS-

4 Haploid cellsGenetically different cells

than the parent cell with half the genetic information.

MeiosisMeiosis

We need half the informationso that one half comes fromthe male sex cell and theother half comes from thefemale sex cell. Theycombine to have the all thegenetic information needed.

The random way that these lineup in tetrads is what gives us

the diversity in genes that makeus all different from one another.

This is called Independent

About 8 million different possiblecombinations
