Each pair of homologous duplicated chromosomes have four sister chromatids, two

sister chromatids for each chromosome

Male Y chromosome is smaller than the female X chromosome
Diploid cell (2n) has two sets of chromosomes
2n=46 in humans
Meiosis reduces the number of chromosome sets from diploid to haploid
Crossing over nonsister chromatids exchange DNA segments
Entire chromosomes are pulled towards opposite poles of the cell, sister
chromosomes are not separated
Synapsis: homologous chromosomes line up gene by gene
No chromosome replication occurs after meiosis I and the beginning of meiosis ii,
because the chromosomes are already duplicated
Prophase II
Metaphase II
Anaphase II
Telophase II and Cytokinesis
Meiosis produces cells that are genetically difference from each other and the
parent cells
