Why do meiosis?Meiosis is “REDUCTION DIVISION”so Reduces chromosome number, parent cell is 2n while daughter cells are n.

Why do gonosome undergo meiosis?

QUIZ TIME…

1. In streptomycin fungus n = 11. What is the diploid number for this species?

2. If a horse egg has 98 chromosomes how many does a horse egg cell have?

3. If n = 16 for goldfish how many chromosome in a fin cell?

4. If 2n = 108 for black spruce trees then what is the haploid number? 2n = 14 for this species. Fill in

the chromosome numbers for each cell.

Metaphase IMetaphase I• Shortest phaseShortest phase

• TetradsTetrads align on the metaphase platemetaphase plate.

• INDEPENDENT ASSORTMENT OCCURS:INDEPENDENT ASSORTMENT OCCURS:1. Orientation of homologous pair to poles is random.2. Variation3. Formula: 2n

Example:Example: 2n = 42n = 4then then n = 2 n = 2

thusthus 2 22 2 = 4 combinations= 4 combinations

• Homologous chromosomes Homologous chromosomes separate and move towards the poles.

• Sister chromatids Sister chromatids remain attached at their centromerescentromeres.

= Non-separation of chromosomes resulting in diploid or empty gametes.

Non-disjunction

Downs syndrome = Trisomy 21 - 3 copies of chromosomes 21 equalling a total of 47 chromosomes. = 2n + 1(chance of occurring in oogenesis increases with maternal age)

Turners syndrome = Monosomy X - has only oneone XX chromosomes totalling only 45 chromosomes in her body cells. (monosomy X) = 2n-1

Klinefelter’s syndrome = XXY - male which has an extra Xextra X chromosome = 2n + 1

Conditions caused bynon-disjunction

A simple check for the presence of a bone in the nose could more accurately test unborn babies for Down's syndrome, scientists say. Researchers say combining the nose test with existing screening methods (amniocentesis, CVS) could lead to a five-fold reduction in the number of miscarriages linked to an invasive procedure used to confirm Down's syndrome.

Down’s syndrome – trisomy 21

Normal boy who develops some female secondary sex character-istics at puberty.

-slightly lower IQ, infertile, delayed motor, speech, maturation

-treated with testosterone.
