Human body cells have 46 chromosomes

10.1 Meiosis

Sexual Reproduction and Genetics

Each parent contributes 23 chromosomes

Chapter 10

Homologous chromosomes—one of two paired chromosomes, one from each parent

Chromosomes and Chromosome Number

Homologous chromosomes

10.1 Meiosis

Same length

Same centromere position

Carry genes that control the same inherited traits

Chapter 10

Haploid and Diploid Cells

Human gametes contain 23 chromosomes.

A cell with n chromosomes is called a haploid cell.

A cell that contains 2n chromosomes is called a diploid cell.

10.1 Meiosis

An organism produces gametes to maintain the same number of chromosomes from generation to generation.

Chapter 10

Meiosis I

The sexual life cycle in animals involves meiosis.

Meiosis produces gametes.

10.1 Meiosis

When gametes combine in fertilization, the number of chromosomes is restored.

Chapter 10

Stages of Meiosis I

Reduces the chromosome number by half through the separation of homologous chromosomes

Involves two consecutive cell divisions called meiosis I and meiosis II

Interphase

Chromosomes replicate.

Chromatin condenses.

Interphase

Meiosis I

Prophase I

Pairing of homologous chromosomes occurs.

Each chromosome consists of two chromatids.

The nuclear envelope breaks down.

Spindles form.

Meiosis I

10.1 Meiosis

Prophase I Crossing over produces exchange of genetic

information. Crossing over—chromosomal segments are

exchanged between a pair of homologous chromosomes.

Meiosis I

10.1 Meiosis

Metaphase I

Chromosome centromeres attach to spindle fibers.

Homologous chromosomes line up at the equator.

Anaphase I

Chapter 10

Anaphase I

Homologous chromosomes separate and moveto opposite poles of the cell.

Meiosis I

Telophase I

The spindles break down.

Chromosomes uncoil and form two nuclei.

The cell divides.

Chapter 10

Anaphase II

The sister chromatids arepulled apart at the centromere by spindle fibers and move toward the opposite poles of the cell.

Meiosis II

Chapter 10

Telophase II

The chromosomes reach the poles, andthe nuclear membrane and nuclei reform.

Telophase II

Meiosis II

Cytokinesis results in four haploid cells, each with n number of chromosomes.

10.1 Meiosis

Chapter 10

Cytokinesis

The Importance of Meiosis

Meiosis consists of two sets of divisions

Produces four haploid daughter cells that are not identical

10.1 Meiosis

Results in genetic variation

Chapter 10

Meiosis Provides Variation

Depending on how the chromosomes line up at the equator, four gametes with four different combinations of chromosomes can result.

Genetic variation also is produced during crossing over and during fertilization, when gametes randomly combine.

10.1 Meiosis

Chapter 10

Sexual Reproduction v. Asexual Reproduction

Asexual reproduction The organism inherits all of its chromosomes

from a single parent. The new individual is genetically identical to

its parent.

Sexual reproduction Beneficial genes multiply faster over time.

Transcript of Human body cells have 46 chromosomes

Cell Divison. Each of your body cells has 46 chromosomes, or 23 pairs. Each pair is made of HOMOLOGOUS CHROMOSOMES Homo = same These chromosomes contain.

Genes and Chromosomes Humans have 46 chromosomes in all body cells (not sex cells) ---called SOMATIC CELLS You have 23 pairs of chromosomes ---each pair.

Normal human body cells each contain 46 chromosomes. The cell division process that body cells undergo is called mitosis and produces daughter cells.

DNA and Chromosomes. Chromosome in Cells DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) AGTC Human 46 chromosomes 22 homologs, x, or x/y Genes are carried by Chromosomes.

Mitosis = New Cells Results in 2 identical daughter cells 4 chromosomes 4 chromosomes.

Most humans have 46 chromosomes (23 pairs) in their body cells.

Meiosis The Production of Sex Cells. How many chromosomes does a human body cell have? 46.

I.Types of Cells A. Somatic (Body Cells) - Have 46 Chromosomes B. Gametes (Sex Cells) - Egg & Sperm - Have 23 Chromosomes.

Human Heredity Humans have 46 chromosomes –22 pairs of Autosomes (body cells) –1 pair of Sex chromosomes (XX or XY) Chromosomes can be cut up and arranged.

LP 6. CHANGES TO CHROMOSOMES: NUMBER, SIZE AND STRUCTURE Important points In each human cell, except the egg and sperm cells, there are 46 paired chromosomes.

Human body cells have 46 chromosomes Meiosis Sexual Reproduction and Genetics Each parent contributes 23 chromosomes Section 1 Homologous chromosomes—one.

MEIOSIS. The majority of all human cells have 46 chromosomes. Question: What would happen if the sperm and egg each contained 46 chromosomes?

Mitosis and Meiosis. Differences in Human Cell Types Somatic Cells Somatic Cells-“regular” -diploid (46 chromosomes) -Identical DNA throughout body Gamete-

Chromosomes Diploid: contains 2 sets of chromosomes Body cells, 2n Haploid: contains 1 set of chromosomes Gametes, sex cells, n Sister chromatids-

Meiosis The formation of gametes (sex cells). Some Vocab Diploid (2n): two sets of chromosomes – You are diploid ( 46 chromosomes) 1 set from mom 1 set.

Genes and Chromosomes Humans have 46 chromosomes in all body cells called SOMATIC CELLS CELLS THAT ARE NOT BODY CELLS ARE SEX CELLS = GAMETES You have.

Cell Division: MITOSIS. Genes and Chromosomes Humans have 46 chromosomes in all body cells (somatic cells) You have 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes.

Every human cell (except 1 type) has 46 chromosomes = Diploid (2n) number.Review Since we don’t want more then 46 chromosomes in our cells, then the gametes.

Meiosis Pgs. 96-100 Human body cells have 46 chromosomes Meiosis - General Overview Sexual Reproduction and Genetics Each parent contributes 23 chromosomes.

Cell Division: Meiosis · 2/1/2020 · Cell Division: Meiosis. Recall you have two different types of cells in your body somatic cells (body cells) aka diploid cells 46 chromosomes
