Chapter 36, Problem 9TYU

(a)

Summary Introduction

To draw:

Four rounds of mitosis of the stem cell.

Concept introduction:

Spermatogenesis is the process where sperm cells are produced through the meiosis of the spermatogonium. Stem cells are the undifferentiated cells which can give rise to every type of cell it is found with and in the process it also gives rise to another stem cell.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To draw:

Single mitosis followed by meiosis of a spermatogonium.

Concept introduction:

Spermatogenesis is the process where sperm cells are produced through the meiosis of the spermatogonium. Stem cells are the undifferentiated cells which can give rise to every type of cell it is found with and in the process it also gives rise to another stem cell.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To determine:

What would happen if the stem cell divides like the spermatogonium.

Concept introduction:

Spermatogenesis is the process where sperm cells are produced through the meiosis of the spermatogonium. Stem cells are the undifferentiated cells which can give rise to every type of cell it is found with and in the process it also gives rise to another stem cell.

If one follows 50 primary oocytes in an animal through theirvarious stages of oogenesis, how many secondary oocytes wouldbe formed? How many first polar bodies would be formed? Howmany ootids would be formed? If one follows 50 primary spermatocytes in an animal through their various stages of spermatogenesis, how many secondary spermatocytes would beformed? How many spermatids would be formed?
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.
In the process of Oogenesis in animal cells, will the genotype of the second polar body (derived from meiosis II) always be identical to that of the ootid? Why or why not?
