Garden peas have 14 chromosomes. Height for pea plants is found on the #4 chromosome. Garden pea’s male and female gametes each have 7 chromosomes. They each donate one #4 chromosome. So the new plant ends up with two #4 chromosomes with the genes for height from their parents on it (one gene from each parent). These two #4 chromosomes are called ________________.

  1. Do your own homework.


  2. Garden peas have 14 chromosomes. Height for pea plants is found on the #4 chromosome. Garden pea’s male and female gametes each have 7 chromosomes. They each donate one #4 chromosome. So the new plant ends up with two #4 chromosomes with the genes for height from their parents on it (one gene from each parent). These two #4 chromosomes are called ________________.

    Sister chromatids

    Homologous chromosomes

    Tetrads

    Homozygote

    ANSWER  Homologous chromosomes. This means they carry the alleles for the same characteristic on the same location.

    Which of the following phases of Meiosis do the homologous chromosome pairs line up in the middle of the parent cell?

    Anaphase I

    Metaphase I

    Anaphase II

    Metaphase II

    ANSWER Metaphase I. This means that homologous pairs are separated during Anaphase I of Meiosis I.

    What is the major event that occurs in the Anaphase II stage of Meiosis?

    Crossing over occurs.

    Chromatids line up in the middle.

    Fibers attach to the chromosomes.

    Sister chromatids separate to opposite sides of the cell.

    ANSWER  Sister chromatids are separated to opposite sides of the cell. This means that the four .gametes formed will be haploid

    Which of the following phases of Meiosis does the nucleus reform around the haploid number of chromosomes?

    Prophase II

    Metaphase II

    Anaphase II

    Telophase II

    ANSWER  Telophase II. This means when cytokenesis occurs, the result will be four haploid gametes.

    Describe "crossing over" in Prophase I and how this can create genetic diversity.

    ANSWER  Crossing over is when the two adjacent chromatids of homologous pairs cross over and exchange genetic information. This means that  the gametes formed will contain a combination of genes from both parents leading to variation in the species.

    Hope this helps!
