Complete the table below by filling in the spaces with the correct stage of meiosis—Beginning, Meiosis I, Meiosis II, End. Event

Stage in MeiosisThe double-stranded chromosomes move to thecenter of the cell. The centromeres separate. 1Two cells form, each with half the number ofchromosomes. Each chromosome still has twochromatids. 2Four sex cells form with half the number ofchromosomes as the parental cells. 3The chromosomes are copied. 4A. What is the chromosome theory of inheritance?B. Why is it important that sex cells have half the number of chromosomesas body cells?C. The process by which the number of chromosomes is reduced by half toform sex cells is called ________.

Answer:

1. Meiosis 1.

2. Meiosis 2.

3. End.

4A. The chromosome theory of inheritance states that chromosomes are the main carriers of the genetic factors responsible for inheritance.

B. Body cells have two sets of chromosomes while sex cells have one set. Therefore, when two sex cells meet, they form an embryo with two copies of each chromosomes thereby producing a body cell with the exact number of chromosomes. In essence, meiosis maintains the right number of chromosomes of body cells by creating half the number of chromosomes of sex cells.

C. Meiosis.

Hypothesize how the chromosomes of the parents would look compared to the chromosomes of their child?
marysya [2.9K]

During fertilization, the encounter of gametes results in the fusion of their nuclei. The nucleus of the egg cell thus formed is therefore a mixture of the two nuclei.

So the parent will only give half of his chromosomes, so the child will have 50% of his chromosomes that resemble each of his parents.

Another factor that must be mentioned is the genetic recombination between the chromosomes that occurs during meiosis of the reproductive cells. Thus, this will give a heterogeneous chromosome resulting from recombination of the two chromosomes of each of its parents, and the child will have a unique combination chromosome but keeping the alleles of both parents.
