II. This type of cell division occurs during the formation of both sperm and ovum. The first meiotic division of the primary spermatocyte results in two secondary spermatocytes. .What is the result of the first meiotic division of the primary oocyte? two secondary oocytes O two polar bodies O two ovum one secondary oocyte and one polar body

A spermatogonial cell undergoes mitosis before entering the meiotic cell cycle en route to the production of sperm. However, during mitosis the cytoplasm fails to divide, and only one daughter cell is produced. A resultant sperm eventually fertilizes a normal ovum. What is the chromosomal complement of the embryo?
Women sometimes develop benign tumors calledovarian teratomas or dermoid cysts in their ovaries.Such a tumor begins when a primary oocyte escapesfrom its prophase I arrest and finishes meiosis Iwithin the ovary. (Normally meiosis I does not finish until the primary oocyte is expelled from theovary upon ovulation.) The secondary oocyte thendevelops as if it were an embryo. Development isdisorganized, however, and results in a tumorcontaining differentiated diploid tissues, includingteeth, hair, bone, muscle, and nerve. If a dermoidcyst forms in a woman whose genotype is Aa, whatare the possible genotypes of the cyst, assuming norecombination?
Describe one function, brought about by the process of meiosis thatspermatogenesis and oogenesis have in common. Please write the similarities between spermatogenesis and oogenesis in a paragraph ratherthan a table. Please discuss the process mentioning differentiation, multiplication anddivision. How many stages of meiosis do they go through. Please mention if haploid ordiploid cells are formed.
What is the relationbetween fecundation and theend of the meiotic processduring oogenesis?
How many chromosomesdoes a human normal haploidcell have? How many chromosomes does a human normal diploid cell have? How many are the sexchromosomes within each ofthem?
Starting with One Cell describe and draw step by step the process of Meiosis I in males and females (theyhave different end results). How many viable cells are there for the male and for the female.at the end ofMeiosis I?
Describe the events of meiosis I and meiosis II. How arethe cells produced by meiosis I different from the cellsproduced by meiosis II?
In some animals, females can reproduce by themselves—that is,without males. In this process, called parthenogenesis, the youngdevelop from unfertilized eggs. Use the Internet to find a species thatuses parthenogenesis. How does parthenogenesis work in thatspecies? What are the differences between meiosis in that species andthe events of “typical” meiosis?
What is the differencebetween spermatids andsperm cells? What is the nameof the transformation ofspermatids into sperm cells?

A human male named Phillip has an X chromosome that ismissing its Xic. Is this caused by a new mutation (one that occurredduring gametogenesis), or could this mutation have occurred in anearlier generation and be found in the somatic cells of one of hisparents? Explain your answer. How would this mutation affect hisability to produce viable offspring?
After telophase Il of meiosis, the chromosomal makeup of each daughter cell is: Practia diploid, and the chromosomes are each composed of a single chromatid. O diploid, and the chromosomes are each composed of two chromatids. O haploid, and the chromosomes are each composed of a single chromatid. O haploid, and the chromosomes are each composed of two chromatids.
