Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles
![Page 2: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation
Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to
reproduce their own kind Heredity
Is the transmission of traits from one generation to the next
Variation Shows that offspring differ somewhat in
appearance from parents and siblings
![Page 3: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Concept 13.1: Offspring acquire genes from parents by inheriting chromosomes
Genetics Is the scientific study of heredity and
hereditary variation Genes
Are the units of heredity Are segments of DNA
![Page 4: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Genes
• Genes are passed to the next generation through reproductive cells called gametes (sperm and eggs)
• Each gene has a specific location called a locus on a certain chromosome
• Most DNA is packaged into chromosomes
![Page 5: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Comparison of asexual and sexual reproduction
In asexual reproduction One parent produces genetically identical
offspring by mitosis (clones) In sexual reproduction
Two parents give rise to offspring that have unique combinations of genes inherited from the two parents

Concept 13.2: Fertilization and meiosis alternate in sexual life cycles
A life cycle Is the generation-to-generation sequence of
stages in the reproductive history of an organism
In humans Each somatic cell has 46 chromosomes, made
up of two sets One set of chromosomes comes from each
parent
![Page 8: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Chromosome terminology
Homologous chromosomes Are the two chromosomes composing a
pair One from each parent Have the same inherited characteristics
for each locus Autosomes are homologous
chromosomes not directly involved in determining gender
![Page 11: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Sex chromosomes
Are distinct from each other in their characteristics
Are represented as X and Y Determine the gender of the individual,
XX being female, XY being male
![Page 12: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
A diploid cell
The number of chromosomes in a single set is represented by n.
A diploid cell has two sets (2n) of each of its chromosomes
In a human has 46 chromosomes (2n = 46)
![Page 13: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
In a cell in which DNA synthesis has occurred
All the chromosomes are duplicated and thus each consists of two identical sister chromatids

A haploid cell
• A gamete (sperm or egg) contains a single set of chromosomes, and is haploid (n)
• For humans, the haploid number is 23 (n = 23)• Each set of 23 consists of 22 autosomes and a
single sex chromosome• In an unfertilized egg (ovum), the sex
chromosome is X• In a sperm cell, the sex chromosome may be
either X or Y
![Page 15: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Behavior of Chromosome Sets in the Human Life Cycle
At sexual maturity The ovaries and testes produce haploid
gametes by meiosis During fertilization
These gametes, sperm and ovum, fuse, forming a diploid zygote
The zygote Develops into an adult organism
![Page 16: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

The Variety of Sexual Life Cycles
The three main types of sexual life cycles Differ in the timing of meiosis and
fertilization
Textbook does not have specific examples but the photographic atlas in lab does

In most fungi and some protists
Meiosis produces haploid cells that give rise to a haploid multicellular adult organism
The haploid adult carries out mitosis, producing cells that will become gametes
![Page 21: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Depending on the type of life cycle, either haploid or diploid cells can divide by mitosis
However, only diploid cells can undergo meiosis
In all three life cycles, the halving and doubling of chromosomes contributes to genetic variation in offspring
![Page 22: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Concept 13.3: Meiosis reduces the number of chromosome sets from diploid to haploid
Meiosis Takes place in two sets of divisions,
meiosis I and meiosis II
Results in four daughter cells with half as many chromosomes
![Page 23: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Stages of Meiosis
Meiosis I Reduces the number of chromosomes
from diploid to haploid Called reduction division because it
halves the numbers of chromosome sets per cell
Meiosis II Produces four haploid daughter cells

A Comparison of Mitosis and Meiosis
Meiosis and mitosis can be distinguished from mitosis by three events in Meiosis l1. Synapsis and crossing over
2. Tetrads on the metaphase plate
3. Separation of homologues

Concept 13.4: Genetic variation produced in sexual life cycles contributes to evolution
Reshuffling of genetic material in meiosis Produces genetic variation
In species that produce sexually The behavior of chromosomes during
meiosis and fertilization is responsible for most of the variation that arises each generation
![Page 32: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Independent Assortment of Chromosomes
Homologous pairs of chromosomes Orient randomly at metaphase I of
meiosis In independent assortment
Each pair of chromosomes sorts its maternal and paternal homologues into daughter cells independently of the other pairs
![Page 33: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Origins of Genetic Variation Among Offspring
• Three mechanisms contribute to genetic variation: Independent assortment of chromosomes Crossing over Random fertilization
![Page 34: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

Human variation
• The number of combinations possible when chromosomes assort independently into gametes is 2n, where n is the haploid number
• For humans (n = 23), there are more than 8 million (223) possible combinations of chromosomes
![Page 36: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

Random Fertilization
• Random fertilization adds to genetic variation because any sperm can fuse with any ovum (unfertilized egg)
• The fusion of two gametes (each with 8.4 million possible chromosome combinations from independent assortment) produces a zygote with any of about 70 trillion diploid combinations
![Page 38: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Evolutionary Significance of Genetic Variation Within Populations
Genetic variation Is the raw material for evolution by
natural selection Random variation with independent
assortment and crossing over will produce a zygote with any of about
64 trillion diploid combinations (in humans)
![Page 39: Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles. Overview: Hereditary Similarity and Variation Living organisms Are distinguished by their ability to reproduce.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649d585503460f94a38169/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Evolution
Mutations Are the original source of genetic
variation Sexual reproduction
Produces new combinations of variant genes, adding more genetic diversity
Selection pressure on variation that is heritable causes natural selection leading to evolution
