GAP #3

1. Which process makes variation / genetic diversity possible?

1. How many cycles of Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telophase occur in Meiosis?

1. Even though humans are approximately 99.9% identical in their genetic makeup, an incredible amount of variation is seen among individuals of the species. This genetic variation is greatly influenced by the process of meiosis.

Of the following events that occur during meiosis, which contributes most to genetic diversity in the human population?

1. Which of the following correctly describes meiosis?

Homologous chromosomes contain genes that code for the same traits, but they carry different versions (alleles) of these genes.

Homologous chromosomes pair up side-by-side in tetrads along the middle of the cell during what kind of cell division?

How many sets of division (PMAT) happen in Meiosis?

How many daughter cells does each Meiosis (I & II) create?

Pairs of chromosomes that contain the same genes, but may have different versions are called
