- For an organism with 3 pairs of chromosomes (6 total chromosomes, 2n = 6), draw chromosome diagrams for the following phases of meiosis: prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I, telophase I, prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II & telophase II. Be sure to draw the correct number of chromosomes and the correct number of chromatids per chromosome. Use a different color to represent each chromosome type (for example, use blue to indicate all copies of chromosome 1, red for all copies of chromosome 2, and green for all copies of chromosome 3).Consider a diploid cell that contains 7 pairs of chromosomes. Each pair includes a maternal and a paternal member (for example: AP pair) or AP B ^ n * B ^ p (two pairs). How many different combinations of chromatids are possible during the early phases of anaphase in meiosis II?Complete the following table for the number of chromosomes and chromatids per cell during the different stages of meiosis II for a 2n = 6 organism. NOTE: For telophase, consider the number of chromosomes/chromatids per cell after cytokinesis. Meiosis II #chromosomes/cell Prophase II Metaphase || Anaphase II Telophase II #chromatids/cell

How many kinds of meiotic products can this individual produce?During metaphase I of meiosis, tetrads align along the metaphase plate independently of each other. Therefore, there is a random “shuffle” of maternal and paternal chromosomes in the resulting gametes.The following diagram demonstrates how this works in a diploid cell with four chromosomes . Because there are two pairs of chromosomes and each pair can align in one of two ways during metaphase I, the number of possible variations in the gametes produced is , or .For an organism that is , there are three pairs of chromosomes, so the number of possible variations in the gametes produced due to independent assortment in metaphase I is , or . In an organism with a haploid number of , how many possible combinations of maternal and paternal chromosomes can occur in its gametes? Select one: a. 72=49 b. 27=128 c.17=1 d. 214=16 384

Draw the pairing arrangement of these chromosomes in prophase I of meiosis.Complete the following table for the number of chromosomes and chromatids per cell during the different stages of meiosis II for a 2n = 6 organism. NOTE: For telophase, consider the number of chromosomes/chromatids per cell after cytokinesis. Meiosis II #chromosomes/cell #chromatids/cell Prophase II Metaphase 11 Anaphase II Telophase IIDuring metaphase I of meiosis, tetrads align along the metaphase plate independently of each other. Therefore, there is a random “shuffle” of maternal and paternal chromosomes in the resulting gametes.The following diagram demonstrates how this works in a diploid cell with four chromosomes (2n=4) . Because there are two pairs of chromosomes and each pair can align in one of two ways during metaphase I, the number of possible variations in the gametes produced is 22 or 4.For an organism that is , there are three pairs of chromosomes, so the number of possible variations in the gametes produced due to independent assortment in metaphase I is 23 or 8. In an organism with a haploid number of 7, how many possible combinations of maternal and paternal chromosomes can occur in its gametes? a. 72=49 b. 27=128 c.17=1 d. 214=16 384
- Consider a diploid organism that follows the XX-XO mode of sex determination. Normally, there are 7 chromosomes in its somatic cell. The chromosomal composition is as follows: Chromosome I is a large acrocentric chromosome Chromosome II is a large telocentric chromosome Chromosome III is a small telocentric chromosome Chromosome IV (X chromosome) is a medium submetacentric chromosome Aneuploidy was observed in a particular individual wherein there are three copies of Chromosome III. Diagram how aneuploidy may occur through Mitosis starting from a parent cell at G1 phase. Make sure to distinguish between chromosomes and the following phases of cell division (G1 phase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis). Indicate the chromosome equation and chromosome number of the parent cell and the daughter cells. *S phase and G2 phase purposefully excludedConsider a diploid organism that follows the XX-XO mode of sex determination.
