Reproduction & Embryology
Where do your genes come from?
Diploid and Haploid CellsHow many chromosomes (represented by lines) are found in the human diploid cell? 46
How many chromosomes are found in the human haploid cell? 23
Notice that the chromosomes in the diploid cell are in pairs. How many pairs of chromosomes are in the diploid cell? 23
How many pairs of chromosomes are in the haploid cell? 0
What do you think the human body needs haploid cells for? Reproduction
Diploid cells, also called somatic cells, are found throughout the body. Haploid cells, also called gametes, are not. Why do you think haploid cells are not found throughout the body? Haploid cells do not have all the DNA and therefore can not function like somatic cells

Homologous Chromosomes
Notice how the pairs of chromosomes are arranged in this picture. Briefly describe how they are arranged. Chromosomes are lined up from biggest to smallest (except the last pair). Each pair contains one pick (maternal) and blue (paternal) chromosome. The pairs are homologous.
What is special about the last pair of chromosomes? X and Y are the sex chromosomes – they determine the sex of the individual
What do pairs of chromosomes have in common? Each pair is homologous – meaning it is the same size, shape and carries the same genes.
What are the two types of division shown? Mitosis and meiosis
Which type of division produces
Diploid cells? Mitosis
Haploid cells? (egg and sperm) meiosis
Which type of cell division, mitosis or meiosis, do you think is normally used to produce new cells for:
Growing from a baby to an adult mitosis
Healing a wound mitosis
Making egg and sperm meiosis
Different Methods of Division

# of pairs in daughter cell

Daughter cells are identical to…
Parent cell and each other
Nothing – they are different from parent and each other
Based on Figure 4, what process creates the egg and sperm? meiosis
Based on Figure 4, what is fertilization? Uniting of the sperm and egg
Fertilization results in a zygote. A zygote is a single cell, yet a baby is millions of cells. What process creates those millions of cells? mitosis
How does meiosis and fertilization creates unique individuals?
Meiosis creates unique sperm and eggs
Fertilization randomly combines them
How does meiosis and fertilization ensure that the amount of genetic information in the zygote is the same as in each body cell of the parents?
Meiosis creates haploid cells
Fertilization combines two haploid cells

Reproduction & Embryology
Where do your genes come from?
Meiosis instead of Mitosis Occurs
Meiosis is a different way to divide the nucleus – it divides it in half literally – creating nuclei with 23 chromosomes instead of 46!
Prophase IProphase I is the longest and most complex phase.
All of the events that occurred during prophase of mitosis occur +
Homologous chromosomes come together to form a SYNAPSE (TETRAD).
CROSSING-OVER occurs.
Metaphase IHomologous chromosomes line up randomly at the center of the cell. We call this independent assortment.
Telophase I / Cytokinesis
Telophase I two nuclei form and cytokinesis occurs resulting in 2 haploid daughter cells.
Meiosis II
Meiosis II comes directly after cytokinesis. No growth (interphase) takes place.
Meiosis II is broken into 4 events:
prophase II
metaphase II
anaphase II
telophase II.
The steps of Meiosis II are identical to mitosis.
Anaphase II
Anaphase II is the same as anaphase in mitosis. Notice that the sister chromatids separate.
What is the goal of meiosis?
Meiosis 1
Goals – reduce the chromosome number & mix up the DNA
Meiosis 2
Goals – separate sister chromatids and form 4 cells
What 2 important things are accomplished through meiosis 1?
reduce the chromosome number & mix up the DNA
What 2 important processes help mix up the DNA in meiosis 1?
Crossing over (during prophase I)
Independent Assortment (during Metaphase I)
What is major difference between metaphase 1 and 2?
Metaphase I – homologous pairs line up
Metaphase II – individual chromosomes line up
