FACTS ABOUT MEIOSIS Daughter cells contain
half the number of chromosomes as the original cell (haploid or 1n).
Produces gametes Egg and sperm Occurs in the testes in
males spermatogenesis
Occurs in the ovaries in females Oogenesis 22
WHY DO WE NEED MEIOSIS?
It is the fundamental basis of sexual reproduction Two haploid (1n)
gametes are brought together through fertilization to form a diploid (2n) zygote
Promotes genetic diversity 33
FERTILIZATION: PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER

1n =31n =3
2n = 62n = 6
REPLICATION OF CHROMOSOMES
Replication is the process of duplicating a chromosome Occurs prior to
division Replicated copies
are called sister chromatids
Held together at centromere

Homologs Same genes, different alleles (traits)
SisterChromatidsSame genes, Same alleles (traits)
Gene X
Homologs separate in meiosis I and therefore different alleles (traits)
separate.
MEIOSIS FORMS HAPLOID GAMETES
Meiosis must reduce the chromosome number by half Fertilization then restores the 2n number

TETRADS FORM IN PROPHASE I
1111
Homologous chromosomes(each with sister
chromatids)
Join to form a TETRAD
Called Synapsis
CROSSING-OVER Homologous
chromosomes in a tetrad cross over each other
Pieces of chromosomes or genes are exchanged
Produces genetic recombination in the offspring

METAPHASE I
1515
Homologous pairs of
chromosomes align along the equator of the
cell
ANAPHASE I
1616
Homologs separate and move to opposite poles.
Sister chromatids remain attached at their centromeres.
TELOPHASE I
1717
Nuclear envelopes reassemble.
Spindle disappears.
Cytokinesis divides cell into two.
MEIOSIS II
Only one homolog of each chromosome is present in the cell.
1818
Meiosis II produces gametes with one copy of each chromosome and thus one copy of each gene.
Sister chromatids carry identical genetic
information.

RESULTS OF MEIOSIS
2424
Gametes (egg & sperm) form
Four haploid cells with one copy of each chromosome
One allele of each gene
Different combinations of alleles for different genes along the chromosome
2525
GAMETOGENESIS
SPERMATOGENESIS Occurs in the
testes Two divisions
produce 4 spermatids
Spermatids mature into sperm Men produce about 250,000,000 sperm per day
2626
SPERMATOGENESIS
2727
OOGENESIS Occurs in the ovaries
Two divisions produce 3 polar bodies that die and 1 egg Polar bodies die because of unequal division of cytoplasm
Immature egg called oocyte Starting at puberty, one oocyte matures into an ovum (egg) every 28 days
