1. Explain why we used these particular cells to map the phases of mitosis (Whitefish blastula and Onion Root Tip). Why do these cells best demonstrate the phases of mitosis?
True/false? Answer in the provided squared box and, if false, justify brieflyIn humans, cells in their G1 phase contain 23 chromatids.
Chromosomal Basis of Heredity
Compare and contrast mitosis and meiosis. In what ways is meiosis II similar to and different from mitosis of a diploid cell?
Explain how random chromosomal alignment during metaphase I contributes to variation in gametes produced by meiosis.

- Synthesis - Claim, Evidence, Reasoning Consider the following question: “The Y chromosome is an accurate indicator of a person’s external sex organs.” Do you agree or disagree with this statement? State a CLAIM that addresses the question and support that claim with EVIDENCE and REASONING from the case of Santi Soundarajan.arrow_forwardGENETICS In a sexually reproducing diploid organism in which 2n=6, a normal meiocyte in reduction should exhibit a total of 3 bivalents at the metaphase plate. Consider the following organism in the previous statement. if there is no crossing over, the number of possible haploids (gamete) genotypes generated by "chromosome shuffling" during meiosis is _____?arrow_forwardMODIFIED TRUE OR FALSE. In the following items, read each statement carefully. I. Mitosis and meiosis are two cellular process that might be quite similar in terms of stages, but technically, different process that have two different functions. II. As an example, mitosis involves the production of genetically different daughter cells whereas meiosis involves the production of genetically identical daughter cells. a. The first statement (I) is correct and the second statement (II) is wrong b. The first statement (I) is wrong and the second statement (II) is correct c. Both statements are correct d. Both statements are wrong I. The continuity of life from one cell to another has its foundation in the reproduction of cells by way of the cell cycle.II. The cell cycle is an orderly sequence of events in the life of a cell from the division of a single parent cell to produce two new daughter cells and are highly conserved across eukaryotes.…arrow_forward

- Mitosis DrawingIn this assignment you will track and draw the chromosomes of a diploid organism through all the stages of mitosis. Make sure to draw the alleles for genes A and B on the chromatids in every stage. For mitosis, remember that many events are going on in the cell that are relevant besides just the movement of chromosomes, so please fill in the cell with pertinent structures such as centrioles and spindles.arrow_forwardNeed help with the diagram The STR DNA marker DS11 is located on the p arm of the chromosome #8 in humans. Molecular analysis has shown that Charlie Chaplin is a heterozygote for the STR marker (genotype DS11A and DS11B) Using this knowledge, provide a diagram of meiosis showing only the movements of chromosome 8 (assume no nondisjunction). Throughout, indicate where the marker may be found (in other words, label the chromosome to show where the STR markers can be found. please only show the chromosomes at interphase, metaphase 1, end of meiosis 1, metaphase 2, and end of meiosis 2.arrow_forwardGive only typing answer with explanation and conclusion Your analysis has identified that this new organism has same chromosomal structure as that of eukaryotes on earth.
