Review: difference between sexual and asexual reproduction types of asexual reproduction advantages/disadvantages of asexual reproduction Jan 73:06 PM REMEMBER: Mitosis P: M: A: T: What is mitosis used for? How do the new cells compare to the old cells? What about the production of sex cells? Jan 73:09 PM 1 Meiosis: mitosis is used to create cells that perform a basic function: (Ex. blood cells) mitosis results in identical new cells because these cells will always perform the same function meiosis is used to produce only sex cells such as an egg or sperm meiosis is used be produce new cells that are somewhat different because in sex cells variety is important because it ensures genetic diversity in offspring (increases chances of their survival) there are 8 steps to meiosis Jan 73:11 PM mitosis produces new cells with a full number of chromosomes (Ex. 46 in a new blood cell) a cell with a full number of chromosomes is called a diploid cell meiosis produces new cells with half the number of chromosomes (Ex. 23 in a sperm cell) a cell with half the number of chromosomes is called a haploid cell Jan 73:15 PM 2 HAPLOID DIPLOID Jan 73:18 PM Meiosis: (a) Prophase I the genetic material has already doubled before this step (Ex. humans 46 92) chromosomes form into homologous pairs Jan 73:23 PM 3 (b) Metaphase I: homologous pairs move towards the equator this time they line up in pairs along the equator Jan 73:25 PM (c) Anaphase I: pairs of chromosomes are pulled toward opposite equators they do not separate chromosome pairs Jan 73:27 PM 4 (d) Telophase I: cytokinesis occurs and two new cells are formed each containing an equal number of chromosomes (Ex. humans have 46) Jan 73:29 PM (e) Prophase II homologous pairs begin to move toward the equator of the cells Jan 73:30 PM 5 (f) Metaphase II: pairs line up along the equator of the cell they are now preparing to split Jan 73:32 PM (h) Anaphase II: chromosomes now begin to be pulled apart toward the opposite poles of the cells Jan 73:33 PM 6 (i) Telophase II: the cell now split into two separate cell each with half the number of original chromosomes in humans these new cells are called sperm and egg each with 23 chromosomes Jan 73:36 PM Comparing Mitosis and Meiosis: Mitosis: Meiosis: In body cells In sex organs to produce sex cells Two daughter cells Four daughter cells Same number of chromosomes as parent cell One half the number of chromosomes as parent cell Asexual reproduction Sexual reproduction Jan 1011:08 AM 7 Readings: Pages 170 175 Videos: Mitosis: Meiosis: Questions: Page 179: #'s 10,11,14,16,18,21 Jan 87:58 AM 8
