Chapter 10 Meiosis and Sexual Reproduction 1 10.1 Halving the Chromosome Number • Meiosis Special type of cell division Used only for sexual reproduction Halves the chromosome number prior to fertilization • Parents are diploid (2n) • Meiosis produces haploid (n) gametes • Gametes fuse in fertilization to form a diploid (2n) zygote • The zygote becomes the next diploid (2n) generation 2 Halving the Chromosome Number • • • • In diploid body cells, chromosomes occur in pairs Humans have 23 different types of chromosomes Diploid (2n) cells have two chromosomes of each type Chromosomes of the same type are said to be homologous chromosomes (homologues) They have the same length Their centromeres are positioned in the same place One came from the father (the paternal homolog) the other from the mother (the maternal homolog) When stained, they show similar banding patterns 3 Homologous Chromosomes Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

Willatt/Photo Researchers, Inc. 4 Halving the Chromosome Number • Homologous chromosomes have genes controlling the same trait at the same position Each gene occurs in duplicate • Many genes exist in several variant forms in a large population • Homologous copies of a gene may encode identical or different genetic information • The variants that exist for a gene are called alleles • An individual may have: Identical alleles for a specific gene on both homologs (homozygous for the trait), or A maternal allele that differs from the corresponding paternal allele (heterozygous for the trait) 5 Halving the Chromosome Number • Overview of Meiosis Meiosis I • Chromosomes are replicated prior to meiosis I – Each chromosome consists of two identical sister chromatids • Homologous chromosomes pair up – synapsis • Homologous pairs align themselves against each other side by side at the metaphase plate • The two members of a homologous pair separate • Each daughter cell receives one duplicated chromosome from each pair Meiosis II • DNA is not replicated between meiosis I and meiosis II • Sister chromatids separate and move to opposite poles • The four daughter cells contain one daughter chromosome from each pair • Each daughter chromosome consists of a single chromatid • The daughter cells are haploid 6 Overview of Meiosis Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.
