Question

1. According to Model 1, in what type of organs are the cells that enter meiosis I found? 2. Considering what you already know about mitosis in cells, what event must take place during interphase before a cell proceeds to division? 3. What two structures make up a single replicated chromosome? 4. In Model 1, how many replicated chromosomes does the cell contain during prophase? 5. At which stage in meiosis I do the pairs of homologous chromosomes come together? 6. Once the chromosomes have formed a pair, what are they called?​

Answer 1

Answer:

1.) Sex organs

2.) DNA replication

3.) Sister chromatids

4.) Two identical daughter cells

5.) Late prophase 1

6.) Tetrads

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division that occurs in living organisms which involves the division of a single cell to produce four cells containing half the original amount of the parent genetic information. An example of organs that enter meiosis is the SEX CELLS.

Mitosis is another type of cell division that leads to the production of two daughter cells which are genetically identical to the parent cell. During interphase before a cell proceeds to division, DNA replication must occur. This is a process DNA uses to make a copy of itself during cell division.

Chromosomes are genetic material which occurs in pairs known as the SISTER CHROMATIDS

PROPHASE in the stage the process that separates the duplicated genetic material carried in the nucleus of a parent cell into two identical daughter cells

During late prophase 1 the pairs of homologous chromosomes come together to form two chromosomes and four chromatids, with one chromosome originating from each parent.

Once the chromosomes have formed a pair they are called TETRADS
