Question

q7. now draw the chromosomes during metaphase ii of meiosis for the cell you drew in q3. clearly label all alleles for all genes. also, label the sister chromatids, centromere, and homologous chromosomes in at least 1 instance in your drawings, if they are present.

also answer the following with regards to the cells drawn in q7:
q8. is the dna replicated or unreplicated?

q9. is the cell diploid or haploid?

q10. what is the
\ for this particular model?

q11. draw all the products of meiosis in the gametes (eggs) for this flower in the cell you drew in q7.

Explanation:

• Q8: DNA replication occurs before meiosis I. By metaphase II, the DNA is unreplicated as it has already been separated during meiosis I.
• Q9: After meiosis I, the cell is haploid. Metaphase II is part of the second - meiotic division in a haploid cell.
• Q10: The "n" represents the haploid number of chromosomes. Since the cell is in metaphase II (after the reductional division of meiosis I), the number of chromosome sets is 1, so n is the number of non - homologous chromosomes present in the cell at this stage.

Answer:

Q8. Unreplicated
Q9. Haploid
Q10. The haploid number of chromosomes in the cell at this stage.
