In an attempt to simplify meiosis for the benefit of students, mad scientists develop a way of preventing premeiotic S phase and making do with having just one division,including pairing, crossing over, and segregation. Wouldthis system work, and would the products of such a system differ from those of the present system?

Figure 13.6 Which of the following statements about nondisjunction is true? Nondisjunction only results in gametes with n+1 or n-1 chromosomes. Nondisjunction occurring during meiosis II results in 50 percent normal gametes. Nondisjunction during meiosis I results in 50 percent normal gametes. Nondisjunction always results in four different kinds of gametes.
Provide two reasons why meiosis leads to genetic variation in diploid organisms.
Compare meiotic anaphase I with meiotic anaphase II. Which meiotic anaphase is most similar to the mitotic anaphase?
Explain how the random alignment of homologous chromosomes during metaphase I contributes to variation in gametes produced by meiosis.

in the expermient of following chromosomal dna movement through meiosis, how many chromosomes were present when meiosis I started? How many nuclei are present at the end of meiosis ll? How many chromosomes are in each? What is the ploidy of the DNA at the end of meiosis l? What about at the end of meiosis ll? How are meiosis l and meiosis ll different? List two reason
If nondisjunction occurs during meiosis I, how many of the daughter cells will have an incorrect number of chromosomes after meiosis I and meiosis II are complete? 4 2 1 3
in the experiment of following chromosomal dna mvement througgh meiosis, why. do you use non-sister chromatids to demobstrate crossing over? what combinatiobns of alleles could result from a crossover between BD and bd chromosomes? Identify two ways that meiosis contributes to genetic recombination. Why is it necessary to reduce the number of chromosomes in gametes, but not in other cell?
An important function of meiosis is to reduce the chromosome number to exactly half.How is this done? What makes such a process necessary?
What would happen to the chromosome number in gametes and offspring if gametes were formed by the mitotic process instead of the meiotic process?
List two differences between meiosis I and meiosis II.
Assume that during meiosis I none of the C chromosomes disjoin at metaphase, but they separate into dyads (instead of monads) during meiosis II. How would this change the alignments that you constructed during the anaphase stages in meiosis I and II? Draw them.
