What is the relationship between independent assortment and meiosis?
Meiosis 1 is the process of separating chromosomes (independent assortment). Independent assortment is the random assortment of chromosomes. So without meiosis, there would be no way to separate the chromosomes randomly. Hope that helps(:
What can we observe in order to visualize Mendel's Law of Segregation?
homologous chromosomes separating during meiosis I
When does duplication of chromosomes occur?
when does the duplication of chromosomes occur?
How many chromosomes are present when meiosis starts?
In humans, 46 chromosomes are present when meiosis begins. The four daughter cells that result from meiosis have 23 chromosomes.
How many chromosomes would a cell have during metaphase 1 of meiosis if it has 12 chromosomes during interphase?
Meiosis is known as a reduction division. The total number of chromosomes present prior to meiosis is reduced in half at the end of meiosis. In this case 12 pairs of chromosomes before meiosis (a total of 24 chromosomes) becomes 12 chromosomes (one of each pair) at the end of meiosis.
How many chromosomes are present when meiosis is started?
In humans, 46 chromosomes are present when meiosis begins. The four daughter cells that result from meiosis have 23 chromosomes.
Are chromosomes single or double in meiosi?
The chromosomes are double (diploid) at the beginning of meiosis. By the end of meiosis I, the chromosomes are single (haploid).
Explaining why the process of mitosis and meiosis are both?
mitosis is the duplicate of chromosomes and meiosis is the reducing of chromosomes.
Chromosomes are duplicated?
The chromosomes duplicate themselves in Meiosis 1, however they don't duplicate in Meiosis 2.
What is the end result difference between mitosis and meiosis?
Mitosis = doubling of chromosomes. Meiosis = halving of chromosomes.
What happens to chromosomes for meiosis to start?
The chromosomes divide.
How do chromosomes separate?
meiosis
