Prophase 2
No more crossing over, much shorter phase
Ova
female large gamete cells, 1 produced in each meiotic division
Metaphase 2
Chromosomes move to the equator in each of the two cells. There are no matching chromosome pairs. Chromosomes line up in single file down the center of each cell, as in mitosis
Chromatid
one of two strands of a replicated chromosome before their separation during mitosis or meiosis
Anaphase 1
Matching chromosomes of each pair separate and begin to move toward opposite poles of the spindle, each chromosome still consists of two chromatids attached at the centromere
Gamete
sex cells
Prophase 1
Crossing over occurs, chromosome pairs move to the equator
Fertilization
the nuclei of two gametes unite to produce a zygote, creates diploid no. in zygote
Asexual reproduction
new individuals are produced from a single parent
Centromere
Specialized region of a chromosome that holds two replicated chromosomal strands together and that attaches to the spindle in mitosis
Telophase 1
As the approach the the poles, cytokinesis occurs, making two cells. matching chromosomes are in different cells for 1st time. contains parent cells total information
Anaphase 2
Centromeres divide, two chromatids of each chromosome separate and move toward opposite poles
Telophase 2
Chromosomes gather at the poles and are enclosed by new nuclear membranes. Cytokinesis now occurs resulting in 4 haploid cells
Sexual reproduction
reproduction requiring two parents and two very different types of cells
Metaphase 1
chromosomes move to center of cell where they line up
Sperm cells
small male gamete cells, DNA in small head, 4 produced in each meiotic division
