If the 2n chromosome number of an organism is 12:
(a) what is the probability of having a spermatid with equal number of maternal and paternal chromosomes? (b) of a polar body containing at least two paternal chromosomes.
Step by step
Solved in 2 steps
- If the amount (mass) of DNA in a diploid cell during G1 phase prior to meiosis I is 8 pg (picograms), how much DNA would be present in a daughter cell immediately following: A) meiosis I? B) meiosis II? (for your information, this cell will function as a gamete) HINT: Go through the process of meiosis one step at a time. DNA replication would double the amount of DNA in the cell, cell division divides the DNA into two daughter cells.(d) With the random segregation of dyads, how many possible combinations are there at the end of meiosis for a diploid number of 10? (e) If half the chromosomes of a human primary oocyte segregate into the first polar body, which degenerates, why aren't some of the different kinds of chromosomes of the diploid chromosome complement absent from the egg? (f)What is the significance of the formation of polar bodies?An organism has a diploid number of 16 in a primary oocyte. (a) How many tetrads are present in the first meiotic prophase? (b) How many dyads are present in the second meiotic prophase? (c) How many monads migrate to each pole during the second meiotic anaphase?
- If nondisjunction occurs in humans for one pair of homologous chromosomes during meiosis I. The other pairs segregate normally. a) Will any normal gametes result? b) How many chromosomes will each human gametehave? If nondisjunction occurs in humans for sister chromatids during meiosis II. The other pairs segregate normally. a) Will any normal gametes result? b) How many chromosomes will each human gamete have?Assume that you were examining a first polar body and noted that it had one copy (dyad) of each chromosome except chromosome 21. Chromosome 21 was completely absent. What would you expect to be the chromosome 21 complement (only with respect to chromosome 21) in the secondary oocyte? What consequences are likely in the resulting zygote if the secondary oocyte was fertilized?In human spermatogenesis, mitosis of a stem cell gives rise to one cell that remains a stem cell and one cell that becomes a spermatogonium. (a) Draw four rounds of mitosis for a stem cell, and label the daughter cells. (b) For one spermatogonium, draw the cells it would produce from one round of mitosis followed by meiosis. Label the cells, and label mitosis and meiosis. (c) Explain what would happen if stem cells divided like spermatogonia.
- If an non disjunction occurs in meiosis 2 in a male and the resulting sperm fertilizes a normal female egg, which of the following coujld result. Check ALL that apply a) YO b) XYY c) XXY d) XXX e) XO Polar bodies are formed during Male meiosis Female meiosis Both male and female meiosis Neither male nor female meiosis A brain cell in a normal human male would have a Y chromosome. a) True b) FalseDuring meiosis in male mammals, sex chromosomes segregate to produce two types of sperm: X‑bearing sperm and Y‑bearing sperm. True or false?A sperm cell from the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster contains four chromosomes. How many chromosomes would be present in a spermatogonial cell about to enter meiosis? How many chromatids would be present in a spermatogo- nial cell at metaphase I of meiosis? How many would be present at metaphase II?
- A diploid organism produces four gametes from one parent cell through the process of meiosis. Two gametes are found to have 7 chromosomes and two gametes are found to have 5 chromosomes. A) Is this the expected number of chromosomes that would be found in each gamete following a normal cycle of meiosis? If yes, explain why. If no, explain why not and describe how the gamete situation described above occurred. B) Determine the number of homologous chromosome pairs that the original parent cell contained, before meiosis began. Explain how you determined this value.(i)Draw a diagram of Metaphase I and II of meiosis in the father, which illustrates the only possible way in which the father’s chromosomes could have aligned during Metaphase I, and in the subsequent Metaphase II in the same cell, in order to have resulted in the conception of the specific son who has all three of these genetic conditions (achondroplasia, color blindness and deafness). (ii) Then, in the final set of diagrams, show the specific genes and chromosomes present in each of the four gametes that would have resulted from this series of events during meiosis I and II in the father. (iii) Indicate which gamete or gametes produced by the father could have been involved in the son’s conception, by labeling the gamete(s) with an ARROW.imagine a giraffe whose diploid is 30. A)Under what circumstances would the giraffe go through a process of meiosis? . b) what will be the final result of this meiosis for the giraffe (# of cells + # of chromosomes/cells)
