Biology – Meiosis Questions With All Correct Answers
According in Model 1, in what type of organs are the cells that enter meiosis I
found? correct answer -The sex cells
Considering what you already know about mitosis in cells, what event must
take place during interphase before a cell proceeds to division? correct
answer -DNA replication
What two structures make up a single replicated chromosome? correct
answer -Sister chromatids
In Model 1, how many replicated chromosomes does the cell contain during
prophase? correct answer -Four
At which stage in meiosis I do the pairs of homologous chromosomes come
together? correct answer -Late prophase I
Once the chromosomes have formed a pair, what are they called? correct
answer -Tetrads
At the end of meiosis I, two cells have been produced. How many replicated
chromosomes are in each of these cells? correct answer -Two
Cells with a full set of chromosomes are referred to as diploid o 2n, whereas
cells with half the chromosomes are haploid or n. At which stage(s) of meiosis
I are the cells diploid and at which stages are they haploid? correct answer
-Diploid = Prophase, metaphase and anaphase
Haploid = Telophase, after the cell has split
Which of the statements below correctly describes the relationship between
the cells at the end of telophase I and the original cell? correct answer -The
new cells have two copies of half the genetic information in the original cell
Considering the genetic makeup of the homologous pairs, will the cells at the
end of telophase I be genetically identical to each other? correct answer -
No, because they carry the same genes but different types
