Genes are a unit of heredity that is transferred from a parent to the offspring and is held determine some characteristics of the offspring. Some genes include: the color of the eyes (whether you have your mother's or father's eyes) the hair color, and skin color.

Inherited traits means you received something from your parents, grandparents or other family members. 

Acquired traits means a characteristic or trait that produces a phenotype that is a result of an environmental influence.Acquired traits are not coded for in the DNA of an individual and therefore cannot passed down to offspring during reproduction.    <span />

How does the anaphase stage differ in the two phases of meiosis?
Ronch [10]

The answer is c. Anaphase I separates homologous chromosomes and anaphase II separates sister chromatids into daughter cells.


Meiosis is a cell division which results in the reduction of chromosome number by half (from diploid to haploid) in daughter cells. It consists of meiosis I and meiosis II. 

In anaphase I, the sister chromatids separate from each other to the opposite sides of the cells. In meiosis I there are 46 chromosomes in duplicates which are present as pairs of sister chromatids. When comes to separation, homologous chromosomes separates only, but not sister chromatids. Homologous chromosomes are present only in meiosis I.

 In anaphase II, since the cell is haploid, there are 23 chromosomes in duplicates, which are present as sister chromatids. So, in this phase, sister chromatids are those who separates.
