    Meiosis
    Day 1 of 2

    Sexual reproduction and cell


    division
    Sexual reproduction is reproduction
    involving two sources of genetic
    material (i.e. two parents).
    This means that offspring will be
    genetic combinations of the two
    parents.

    Gametes
    Gametes are sex cells, such
    as sperm and egg. The
    purpose of a gamete is to
    fuse with another gamete to
    combine genetic material
    (fertilization).
    A zygote is the cell which is
    produced by fertilization.
    The zygote will develop into
    an embryo.

    Advantages of Sexual
    Reproduction:
    The main advantage of sexual
    reproduction is genetic variation.
    With many genetic possibilities, the
    likelihood of a successful
    combination of traits for a particular
    environment is high.

    Disadvantages of Sexual
    Reproduction
    The disadvantages of
    sexual reproduction
    include the necessity of
    mating for fertilization
    (which requires more
    time) and the risks of
    unfavorable genetic
    combinations.

    Sexual reproduction also relies on


    cell division.
    Meiosis is a type of cell division which
    produces gametes. Meiosis is a unique type of
    cell division because it divides the genetic
    material in half, allowing for fertilization.
    Example: Human body cells contain 46
    chromosomes.
    In order for a zygote (fertilized egg) to
    contain 46 chromosomes, the sperm and egg
    must each contain only
    23 chromosomes.

    The Process
    Meiosis (to produce the gametes)

    Mitosis is the process


    which allows the zygote
    to begin dividing. The
    cells also must
    differentiate (become
    different types of cells to
    carry out different
    functions).

    Fertilization
    (union of the gametes)

    Mitosis
    (necessary for growth)

    Diploid Cell
    Recall that a gamete is very
    different from a somatic
    (body) cell.
    A somatic cell is diploid, which
    means it contains two of each type
    of chromosome. These chromosome
    pairs are called homologous
    chromosomes.
    For example, a human has 23 types
    of chromosomes. A human somatic
    cell has 23 homologous pairs (46

    Haploid Cell
    A gamete is haploid, which
    means it contains only one of
    each type of chromosome
    (one from each homologous
    pair).
    For example, a human egg cell
    contains 23 total
    chromosomes.

    1. Make a foldable demonstrating
    each step in Meiosis and its function
    OR
    2. Create a poster (any size is fine)
    diagramming the steps of Meiosis
    (include a description for each step)
    Must include: Interphase, Prophase

    Meiosis provides several sources of genetic


    variation:
    Crossing over occurs when the homologous pairs
    come together during Meiosis I.
    In crossing-over a part of one chromosome can
    switch places with the same part of the
    homologous chromosome. Then, when the
    homologous pairs are separated, each
    chromosome will be different than the original.
    Also called genetic recombination.

    Random assortment of chromosomes into


    daughter cells during Meiosis I allows for a mix
    of the chromosomes inherited from each
    parent.
