Why Sex?
Section 9.1 Figure 9.2
• Genetic diversity • Increases chance to survive
Semen attack unsuspecting ovum

Homologous chromosomes
Diploid Cells Contain Two Homologous Sets of Chromosomes
Section 9.2 Figure 9.3
Most cells in a sexually reproducing organism have two sets of chromosomes: one from the father and one from the mother.

Diploid Cells Contain Two Homologous Sets of Chromosomes
Section 9.2 Figure 9.4
Homologous pair:• look alike chromosomes• carry the same sequence of
genes for the same traits • ALLELES different versions
The photo below shows two chromosomes from one cell. Which statement is true?
A. Both came from theperson’s mother.B. The 1-2 pair is identicalto the 3-4 pair.C. 1 is identical to 2.D. The chromosomes havenot been replicated yet.

Prophase I
• Synapsis
• Tetrad formation
• Crossing over
Meiosis I
Meiosis Generates Variability
Section 9.5 Figure 9.8
During crossing over, two homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material during prophase I.

Metaphase I
• Metaphase plate
• Independent assortment
• 2n 223 => 8 million
