Meiosis Practice Worksheet

On each of the images, label the phase of meiosis:

1.__anaphase II__ 2. __cytokinesis__ 3. __metaphase I__ 4. _telophase II_

5.__telophase I_ 6. __cytokenisis II__ 7. _metaphase II_ 8. _prophase I_

9._prophase II__ 10. __anaphase I__

Fill in the blank:

11. A cell with a diploid number of 20, undergoes meiosis. This will produce __4_ daughter

cells, each with __10_ chromosomes.

12. Crossing over occurs during this phase: __prophase I__ 13. Tetrads line up along the

equator during this phase: _metaphase I_

14. At the end of meiosis I, _2_ daughter cells are created.

These daughter cells are [ diploid | haploid ].

15. Meiosis creates what type of cell: __gametes__

Fill in the Blank with the proper phase of Meiosis (Interphase will be used).
Then put a number to identify the order of the phases. (1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc…)
Phase Order

16. _metaphase I_
17. _prophase I_
18. _meiosis 2_
19. _prophase I_
20. _anaphase_
21. _meiosis 1_
22. _metaphase I_
23. _anaphase_
24. _prophase I_
__4__ homologous chromosome line up in the center of the cell
__2__ spindle fibers pull homologous pairs to ends of the cell
__9__ 4 haploid (N) daughter cells form
__1__ cells undergo a round of DNA replication
__6__ sister chromatids separate from each other
__8__ 2 diploid (2N) daughter cells form
__5__ spindle fibers attach to the homologous chromosome pairs
__7__ individual chromatids move to each end of the cell
__3__ crossing-over (if any) occurs
