Chiasma form during meiosis I but not during mitosis. <br> a. True <br> b. False
Goryan [66]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Chiasma is the site of crossing over. It is an X-shaped site that appears in a tetrad (bivalent) chromosome during the diplotene stage of prophase I of meiosis I. Crossing over refers to the exchange of segments of chromatids and occurs between homologous chromosomes only. Crossing over is the event of prophase I of meiosis I and produce new gene combinations.

The homologous chromosomes are separated from each other but remain attached at chiasmata. The dissolution of chiasmata occurs by the end of prophase I and separates the homologous chromosomes completely from each other. Crossing over does not occur in mitosis. Since mitosis does not include crossing over, chiasmata are also not formed in mitosis.

3. Could a man with type AB blood be the father of a child with type O blood? Explain your answer utilizing Punnett squares (see
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Both A alleles and B alleles are dominant over the O alleles. This means that both parents must have an O allele present to even have a chance of having a child with type O blood. Lets say the mother has type O blood with the father having type AB blood. The possible combination would be: AO, BO, AO, BO. The punnett square should look like this:

        A          B

O     AO        BO

O     AO        BO
