  56. 56what are somatic cellsdo not give rise to the next generation
  57. 57what are Germline cellsgive rise to the next generation
  58. 58what happens prior to replication in the DNAeach nucleus contains 2 copies of the genome
    DNA is then replicated before the chromosome divide
  59. 59what happens during DNA replicationthe DNA amount in the nucleus is doubled
    The two copies remain joined at the centromere and the chromosome is comprised of two genetically identical sister chromatids
  60. 60What is diploidtwo chromosomes of each type (homologous pairs)
  61. 61what is haploidthey have only one chromosome of each type, their DNA is un-replicated
  62. 62what happens in mitotic cell division1 cell gives rise to 2 daughter cells

    two rounds of cell division
    Halving genetic content occurs in germline cells to generate sperm and egg cells
  73. 73what are the key events in meiosisHomologous chromosome pair together and form structure with 4 chromatids
    Bivalents align on metaphase plate
    Homologues separate
  74. 74What happens in Meiosis ProphaseMeiosis starts with a diploid cell
    homologues PAIR together
    chromosome of a homologous pair has two sister chromatids
    Each homologue carries a replicated allele
  75. 75what happens in Meiosis AnaphaseThe two homologues separate
    One of each pair goes to opposite spindle pole
  76. 76What happens in Meiosis IINo DNA replication occurs
    Chromosomes line up again
    Sister chromatids separate
    Chromosomes decondense and cells divide

  80. 80how many genes are on each human chromosome100 genes
  81. 81what happens during bivalent pairing at prophase Imaternal and paternal homologues can swap one or more sections of non-sister chromatid: 'crossing over'
  82. 82what does crossing over lead togenetic recombination and gives genetic variability to the gametes
  83. 83what is Homozygoustwo 'identical' alleles
  84. 84what is heterozygoustwo different alleles
  85. 85what is a homologueone pair of like chromosomes
  86. 86what is a dominant allelethe allele that determines the phenotype in a heterozygous organism
  87. 87what is a recessive allelethe allele that is 'hidden' in a heterozygous organism
  88. 88what did Gregor Mendel discoverstudied inheritance in peas (model organism)
  89. 89what is the purpose of a punnett squareUsed to predict the outcome of a genetic cross
    Predicts the probability of an offspring having a particular genotype
    Summarises the possible combination of maternal and paternal alleles
  90. 90what is Mendel's first law of geneticslaw of segregation
    The two alleles "segregate" at Anaphase I when the homologs segregate before being passed to the next generation
  91. 91what do bivalents do?orientate randomly at metaphase I and separate randomly to the poles at anaphase I
  92. 92What is Mendel's 2nd law of geneticsalignment of one pair of homologues does not influence alignment of other pairs
    Each pair of alleles segregate independently of other pairs of alleles during gamete formation
