Figure 13.6 Which of the following statements about nondisjunction is true? Nondisjunction only results in gametes with n+1 or n-1 chromosomes. Nondisjunction occurring during meiosis II results in 50 percent normal gametes. Nondisjunction during meiosis I results in 50 percent normal gametes. Nondisjunction always results in four different kinds of gametes.
5. T.) a. Choose the figure (A or B) where nondisjunction occurs in Meiosis I. b. Explain specifically why you chose this figure. (XX) (X) (X) DOO X Meiosis I Meiosis II (4 pts) Pangolins have 19 pairs of chromosomes. hat is the O B (XX) (XX) Meiosis I 28 201 OOOO Meiosis II
2) A. Explain how polyribosomes form. B. Why might you expect the insertion of 3 DNA base pairs to be less disruptive than th deletion of a single base pair? C. Compare and contrast mitosis and meiosis with respect to their genetic outcomes? D. What are the possible consequences of non-disjunction during cell division? E. How does meiosis increase genetic diversity in populations?
6) The plant Haplepoppus gracilis is diploid (2n = 4). Inside each cell (represented here by the oval) there are four total chromosomes: one long pair (represented by "A" and "a") and one short pair (represented by "B" and “b"). The following diagrams represent possible anaphases of this cell during meiosis or mitosis. The lines represent chromosomes/chromatids being pulled to either the north or south pole of the cell, and the vertex of each "V" represent the centromere which would be attached to kinetochore microtubules. For representative cells 1– 12, say if the diagram represents a cell in anaphase I of meiosis I, anaphase II of meiosis II, anaphase of mitosis, or shows an impossible situation. If the situation is impossible, explain why. い。 VA Vb VA VB VV. V b Va VB VAVA Vo VB ^^ ^ が VaVA Vo VB くs

5.)Gametogenesis, or the formation of gametes, occurs when diploid germ cells undergo meiosis. In fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster), diploid germ cells contain eight chromosomes. Which of the following correctly describes the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells produced during gametogenesis in fruit flies? The daughter cells each contain four chromosomes after meiosis I and four chromosomes after meiosis II. The daughter cells each contain eight chromosomes after meiosis I and eight chromosomes after meiosis II. The daughter cells each contain eight chromosomes after meiosis I and four chromosomes after meiosis II. The daughter cells each contain four chromosomes after meiosis I and two chromosomes after meiosis II.
4. a) Female swamp wallabies have 5 pairs of homologous chromosomes. Based on this al one, how many genetically different gametes can be produced by this animal? b) is through independent assortment. At what stage of meiosis One way that genetic diversity of gametes is produced does this occur? c) meiosis which further increases the genetic diversity of gametes. Describe both the process and at what stage of meiosis it occurs. Explain an additional process that occurs during
1) The daughter cells that result from Meiosis 1 are already haploid and unique a) Which even of Meiosis 1 results in the creation of Haploid cells? That is, why are momologous pairs of chromosomes absent in Meiosis 1 daughter cells? 2) The daughter cells are Haploid/Diploid (chose 1) because homologous pairs Are/Are Not ( chose 1) present in the same cell. The chromosomes in each daughter cells are Duplicate/Unduplicated (chose one) Please be brief
A woman with no phenotype is known to have a 14:21 translocation. 1. With respect to only chromosomes 14 and 21, how many distinct chromosome combinations will happen in her eggs? What portion will be viable? 2. If she has children with a normal man (no translocations), what is the probability that they have a daughter with Down Syndrome or a son with no phenotype?
A woman with normal chromosomes mates with a man who also has normal chromosomes. a. Suppose that, in the course of oogenesis, the woman’s sex chromosomes undergo nondisjunction in meiosis I; the man’s chromosomes separate normally. Give all possible combinations of sex chromosomes that this couple’s children might inherit and the number of Barr bodies that you would expect to see in each of the cells of each child. b. What chromosome combinations and numbers of Barr bodies would you expect to see if the chromosomes separate normally in oogenesis, but nondisjunction of the sex chromosomes takes place in meiosis I of spermatogenesis?
1. Let's take the example of the gray kangaroo (Macropus fuliginosus) whose ploidy is 8 and the sexual determinism of this species is carried out according to the XY mode. From a male kangaroo: a) Draw the karyotype of this individual, obtained by stopping division at metaphase. Your drawing should include: a. All maternal and paternal chromosomes involved (different colors) b. An example of autosome and heterochromosome c. An example of homologous chromosome, sister chromatid and centromere. d. The total number of chromosomes in a metaphase kangaroo cell. e. A sentence to explain the difference between the terms gene and allele that might apply to this species.
Meiotic nondisjunction is much more likely than mitotic nondisjunction.Based on this observation, would you conclude that meioticnondisjunction is usually due to nondisjunction during meiosisI or meiosis II? Explain your reasoning?
