- At what stage of mitosis can the kind and number of chromosomes be easily detected and determined? How does non disjunction in meiosis lead to numerical chromosomal aberration? If cell division during gametogenesis is non meoitic, what is its consequence to the future generations of diploid organisms? What is the relationship between meiosis and fertilization?In kangaroos, the somatic cells are diploid, having 22 chromosomes. How many chromosomes are present in each cell at metaphase II of meiosis?Consider a diploid cell that contains 7 pairs of chromosomes. Each pair includes a maternal and a paternal member (for example: AP pair) or AP B ^ n * B ^ p (two pairs). How many different combinations of chromatids are possible during the early phases of anaphase in meiosis II?
- Humans cells normally have 46 chromosomes (2n). Specify the number of chromosomes present at each of the following stages. In your answers, determine diploid or haploid number of chromosomes and the count the chromatids as chromosomes. For example: anaphase I of meiosis: 46 (2n) = 92 a. metaphase I of meiosis b. metaphase of mitosis c. telophase I of meiosis d. telophase II of meiosisConsider a diploid cell that has 2n = 4 chromosomes: one pair of metacentric chromosomes and one pair of acrocentric chromosomes. Suppose that this cell undergoes nondisjunction, giving rise to an autotriploid cell (3n). The triploid cell then undergoes meiosis. Draw the different types of gametes that could result from meiosis in the triploid cell, showing the chromosomes present in each type. To distinguish between the different metacentric and acrocentric chromosomes, use a different color to draw each metacentric chromosome; similarly, use a different color to draw each acrocentric chromosome.For the following events, specify whether they occur during mitosis, meiosis I, or meiosis II:A. Separation of conjoined chromatids within a pair of sisterchromatidsB. Pairing of homologous chromosomesC. Alignment of chromatids along the metaphase plateD. Attachment of sister chromatids to both poles
- If a diploid organism has 14 chromosomes (2n=14) a. How many chromosomes will its gametes have? b. After meiosis I during gamete formation, how many chromosomes are in each daughter cell? c. After meiosis I during gamete formation, how many chromatids are in each daughter cell?A simple diagram indicating the alterations in genetic content throughout mitosis is shown in the attached picture. Please prepare a similar diagram for meiosis, starting with a diploid cell in G1 (like the picture). Include all of the cells generated at each stage.In a turtle species, a diploid cell in the G1 phase of the cell cycle contains 22 picograms of DNA (picogram is a measure of the total mass of the DNA present). How much DNA is present in a cell of the same species at prophase II of meiosis (prophase of the second meiotic division)?
