What do homologous chromosomes form in pro-phase 1?
Homologous chromosomes in pro-phase 1 arrange themselves as tetrads. A tetrad is a set of four copies of a chromosome--the two original pairs, and the two copies the cell has made.
Does cytokinesis provide new genetic combinations?
Yes. Crossing over (or recombination) shuffles sequences between homologous chromosomes. The resulting chromosomes have different combinations of alleles from the original chromosomes.
Main stage of meiosis?
The main stage of meiosis is called the "reduction division" or "meiosis I." During this stage, homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange genetic information through a process called crossing over. They then separate, resulting in two cells with half the number of chromosomes as the original cell. Meiosis II then follows, where sister chromatids separate, resulting in four non-identical daughter cells.
Describe and distinguish between replicated chromosomes and homologous chromosomes?
Chromosomes usually occur in pairs in body cells. One chromosome in the pair comes from one parent and the other chromosome comes from the other parent. The two chromosomes are the same size and shape and carry the same genes in the same positions. They are called homologous chromosomes. When cells divide the chromosomes first have to copy themselves (ie replicate). Each homologous chromosome makes a replica of itself, and the original and replica are attached to each other at a region called the centromere.
Describe how the chromosomes pairs are numbered?
It all begins from mitosis. Mitosis is the process of the cell division. Mitosis starts when the chromatin within the cell begins to rearrange into orderly strand called chromosomes. The chromosomes then move into pairs. After that, the chromosome pairs begin to pull apart from each other. Eventually, the chromosome pairs split apart into two new cells with the same makeupas the original cell.

How can a child get a chromosome that is totally different from the original chromosomes of both parents?
From crossing over.

How do you think crossing over affects the number of different types of gametes that are formed?
You get four choices of gene, of which two are randomly selected. Although sometimes these genes are the same, often they are not all identical. this results in different genotypes and therefore phenotypes being experienced.
When do bivalent align during meiosis?
ensures that the resulting haploid cells will have the same combination of homologous chromosomes as the original diploid cell
What is crossing over and his does this affect information that the homologous chrosomes carry?
crossing over is when a part of a chromosome breaks off and switches with the other pair. it is part of independent assortment. The information therefore is different than others, so now piece of DNA is the same. Lets say that the original homologous pair is for green eyes and then with crossing over blue eyes come in, so know that chromosome now has traits for blue and green eyes hope this helps! :)

Is Animal Crossing City Folk like the original one?
No. Animal Crossing was the name of the original Animal Crossing game.
