Genetic Variation
 
Random distribution of
chromosomes
 
Chromosomes are passed
to offspring independently
of each other

genetically identical offspring
All prokaryotes and some eukaryotes
can be very rapid
allows them to crowd out other organisms that
reproduce more slowly
Three types of asexual
Binary fission - 
a parent cell splits into two identical daughter cells (E. Coli)
Fragmentation 
- a parent organism breaks into pieces and each piece develops
into a new organism (Starfish – sailors thought they were killing them… not so
much 
)
Budding 
- a parent cell forms a bubble-like bud. The bud stays attached to the
parent cell while it grows and develops. When the bud is fully developed, it breaks
away from the parent cell and forms a new organism.

JELLYFISH don’t rely solely on budding to reproduce – 1

attached to the base of a rock. The polyp then grows, before releasing a
genetically identical bud of itself, that grows into an adult jellyfish.

Cell division involves two main processes: mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis is responsible for the division of somatic cells, producing identical daughter cells. It consists of prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase, followed by cytokinesis. In contrast, meiosis is crucial for the formation of gametes with half the chromosome number, allowing for genetic diversity. Meiosis involves two rounds of division (Meiosis I and Meiosis II) and includes processes like synapsis, crossing over, and independent assortment, leading to the generation of genetically distinct gametes.

  3. Meiosis gametes , withhalfthe number ofchromosomes, are produced. During Meiosis diploid cells are reduced to haploid cells Diploid (2n) Haploid (n) If Meiosis did not occur the chromosome number in each new generation would double . The offspring would die.

  8. Meiosis I Interphase replication Prophase I - homologous chromosomes pair Crossing over! - creates variation (diversity) nonsister chromatids Tetrad chiasmata: site of crossing over

  9. Meiosis I Metaphase I Homologous pair line up at center (tetrad) INDEPENDENT ASSORTMENT OCCURS: 1. Orientation of homologous pair is random 2. **Variation** produces 2n distinct gametes, where n = the number of unique chromosomes. In humans, n = 23 and 223 = 6,000,000
