One full cycle of meiosis produces (4 points) two haploid cells four haploid cells two diploid cells four diploid cells 2. In what phase of meiosis are tetrads separated as homologous chromosomes and pulled to opposite poles of the cell? (4 points) Metaphase I Metaphase II Anaphase I Anaphase II 3. If the gametes produced by a given organism contain 6 chromosomes, how many chromosomes are found in that organism's body cells? (4 points) 3 6 12 10 4. Crossing over occurs when (4 points) sister chromatids are pulled apart at the centromere during anaphase II homologous chromosomes join together to form tetrads during prophase I chromosomes are grouped together into new nuclei during telophase II tetrads of homologous chromosomes randomly line up in metaphase I 5. Which of the following statements best describes the major difference between anaphase of mitosis and anaphase I of meiosis? (4 points) In anaphase I, homologous pairs are separated but sister chromatids stay joined together. In anaphase, spindle fibers pull each set of sister chromatids to opposite ends of the cell. In anaphase I, sister chromatids are separated, forming a total of four haploid cells. In anaphase, tetrads of homologous pairs are separated to form four new nuclei. 6. Compare and contrast what happens in mitosis and meiosis. (4 points) Mitosis is important for growth and repair, while meiosis occurs in cells involved in sexual reproduction. Mitosis is important for reproductive cells, while meiosis is needed for growth and repair of body cells. Mitosis is a process that results in genetically different daughter cells, while meiosis is a process that results in identical daughter cells. Mitosis is a process that requires two cell divisions, while meiosis is a process that requires one cell division and results in identical daughter cells.

1. four haploid cells 2.Anaphase 1 3.homologous chromosomes join together to form tetrads during prophase I 4.In prophase I, tetrads of homologous chromosomes form and crossing over occurs 5.Meiosis has four cell divisions and results in four haploid daughter cells with genetic variation, while mitosis has two cell divisions and results in two identical daughter cells. Mitosis occurs in gametes to increase genetic variation in daughter cells, while meiosis occurs in body cells for growth and repair.
