Tetrads Form in Prophase I

Homologous chromosomes (each with sister chromatids)

Join to form a TETRAD

Called Synapsis

Slide 79

Crossing-Over

Crossing-Over

Homologous chromosomes in a tetrad cross over each other

Pieces of chromosomes or genes are exchanged

Produces Genetic recombination in the offspring

Slide 80

Homologous Chromosomes During Crossing-Over

Homologous Chromosomes During Crossing-Over

Slide 81

Crossing-over multiplies the already huge number of different gamete types produced by independent assortment

Crossing-over multiplies the already huge number of different gamete types produced by independent assortment

Crossing-Over

Slide 82

Metaphase I

Metaphase I

Homologous pairs of chromosomes align along the equator of the cell

Slide 83

Anaphase I

Anaphase I

Homologs separate and move to opposite poles.

Sister chromatids remain

attached at their centromeres.

Slide 84
