Fertilisation
In prophase 2, each cell is haploid, meaning they contain half the number of chromosomes as a diploid cell. This is because the chromosome number was already halved during meiosis I. The main event of prophase 2 is reformation of the spindle fibers and condensation of the chromosomes.
" gets lost "I think you are describing a nondisjuction event where the chromosomes are not properly pulled apart to their proper positions by the mitotic spindle.
Meiosis 1 is called a reduction division because it reduces the number of chromosomes from diploid to haploid. This division results in the production of gametes.
A translocation event, which involves an exchange of chromosome segments between non-homologous chromosomes (in this case, chromosome 7 and chromosome 15). Translocations can lead to genetic disorders or be inherited as a chromosomal abnormality.
If all of the chromosomes fail to separate in meiosis, then nondisjunction can result in a diploid gamete. This is a type of chromosomal mutation. In animals, a zygote produced from the union of a mutated diploid gamete and a normal haploid gamete will have triploidy, which is lethal. In plants, this is not necessarily lethal.
For any event, the complementary event is all of the other possible outcomes. For an event (Rolling a number cube) " Rolling an odd number " The complementary event is " Rolling an even number "
In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes are separated into different daughter cells, which is a crucial event that reduces the chromosome number by half, leading to haploid cells. This process involves the pairing and recombination of homologous chromosomes during prophase I, which does not occur in meiosis II. In meiosis II, the focus is on separating sister chromatids, similar to what occurs in mitosis, without any further reduction in chromosome number.
the bacterium copies its single chromosome
It is a condition in which human males have an extra X chromosome. It is inherited when the extra X chromosome is retained because of a nondisjunction event during meiosis I (gametogenesis).
That defines the odds in favour of the event.
The number of repetitions of an event depends on the type of event and its individual structure, which can range from 2 to 10.
It represents the approximate number associated with some ongoing event - whatever the event may be.
