Question

match each step of meiosis with what happens during that step.
(2 points)
meiosis ii
crossing - over
end of meiosis
meiosis i
genetic material is traded between matching chromosomes to make new gene combinations.
matching chromosome pairs split into two new cells
sister chromatids split apart, like normal cell division.
four different haploid gametes are made.

Explanation:

• Meiosis II: In Meiosis II, sister chromatids split apart, similar to normal cell division (mitosis).
• Crossing - Over: During crossing - over, genetic material is exchanged between homologous (matching) chromosomes, creating new gene combinations.
• End of Meiosis: At the end of meiosis (after both Meiosis I and Meiosis II), four different haploid gametes are produced.
• Meiosis I: In Meiosis I, homologous chromosome pairs (matching chromosome pairs) separate and move into two new cells.

Answer:

• Meiosis II: Sister chromatids split apart, like normal cell division.
• Crossing - Over: Genetic material is traded between matching chromosomes to make new gene combinations.
• End of Meiosis: Four different haploid gametes are made.
• Meiosis I: Matching chromosome pairs split into two new cells.
