The formation of a tetrad during meiosis occurs as a result of?

Synapsis because a tetrad is the structure formed when the homologous double stranded chromosomes (4 chromatids) come together during the synapsis of meiosis.

What distinguishes prophase 1 of meiosis from prophase of mitosis?

In Prophase I of meiosis, a tetrad is formed between 2 homologous chromosomes and their replicates. Small pieces are exchanged between the chromosomes and the tetrad breaks up. Then things happen as usual. So really the only difference is that there's genetic recombination.


In mitosis or meiosis do doubled chromosomes pair to form tetrads?

Tetrads form during meiosis. Tetrad refers to the four chromatids of homologous chromosomes.These are present during Prophase.


What process does non disjunction occur in?

Nondisjunction occurs during anaphase, usually when referring to meiosis, when a tetrad fails to separate.

What is the functional role of forming tetrads in meiosis and or mitosis?

Tetrads only appear in meiosis. The tetrad is the joining of four chromosomes in prophase I of meiosis. Two male duplicated chromosomes and two female chromosomes. The most important role of tetrad formation is ' crossing over. ' This is the exchange of genetic information between the male and female chromosomes. The material, whole genes, is physically swapped between the male and female chromosomes.
