What happens to homologous pairs? Which chromosome will the child get?
eye color genes
brown from Mom
blue from Dad

Homologous Pairs Crossing-over

Each chromosome
pairs with its
corresponding What the importance
homologous
chromosome and of crossing-over?
‘embrace’. Then
exchange alleles =
crossing-over

Meiosis Review
Purpose of Meiosis
To create SEX cells that
have HALF of your genes
Sexual reproduction = diversity
At least one will survive
chromosomes. Can you imagine how many
Meiosis - When
homologous sets of
chromosomes are divided
creating a haploid cell.

Purpose of Meiosis?
Discussion Questions. Watch this video and answer
these questions in notes. Watch video from 0:00-
10:00 https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/video/lifes-greatest-
miracle/
1. What is the advantage of sexual
reproduction over asexual
reproduction?
2. How can every gamete be unique?
You have over 25,000 genes on 46
different combinations you can make?
Average males makes 525 billion sperm in
lifetime – all genetically different!
Diploid – when a cell contains both sets of
homologous chromosomes
Haploid – when a cell contains only one set of
homologous chromosomes

Meiosis I – need 2 colored pencils

Meiosis I

During Meiosis I homologous You will be

pairs of chromosomes drawing meiosis in
crossover, and then they are your notes on
pulled apart. page 8, make sure
you have two
different colors

Meiosis I – Meiosis I

Homologous Homologous
pairs are
chromosomes
separated
attach
together
Then
crossover
2 genetically different cells, haploid (n)= 23
chromosomes are formed

Meiosis I & II Meiosis II

What During Meiosis II sister

happens
during chromatids are separated into 2
meiosis II? daughter cells.

During Meiosis II the sister sister

chromatids are pulled apart – chromatids
pulled apart
just like in mitosis.
4 Haploid cells - 23 chromosomes each
