Types of CellsTypes of Cells
Body cellsBody cells Sex cellsSex cells All cells contain chromosomes!All cells contain chromosomes!
Number of ChromosomesNumber of Chromosomes Any cell with the Any cell with the total number of chromosome pairs is called of chromosome pairs is called diploiddiploid– 2n2n– HumansHumans 2n=46 chromosomes 2n=46 chromosomes
All BODY cells are diploid!All BODY cells are diploid!
The chromosomes of diploid cells The chromosomes of diploid cells come in pairscome in pairs
Two members of a pair are Two members of a pair are considered considered homologoushomologous (similar) (similar)
– Are called Are called homologshomologs. .
Each homolog carries the Each homolog carries the message for the same trait, message for the same trait, although although notnot necessarily the necessarily the
same message.same message.

Homologous Pair ExampleHomologous Pair Example
One homologous pair has a One homologous pair has a (gene) code for eye color.(gene) code for eye color.
One homolog may code for One homolog may code for brown and the other for brown and the other for blue.blue.
It is the It is the combinationcombination of the of the two homologs that two homologs that determines eye color. determines eye color.
Number of ChromosomesNumber of Chromosomes
Any cell with Any cell with half the number of chromosomes of chromosomes pairs (or only 1 set) pairs (or only 1 set) is called is called haploidhaploid– nn– HumansHumans n=23 chromosomes n=23 chromosomes

Making Haploid CellsMaking Haploid Cells
We already learned mitosis is We already learned mitosis is used to make diploid (body) used to make diploid (body) cellscells
Another process is used to make Another process is used to make cells with only half of the cells with only half of the genetic information (haploid genetic information (haploid

–It increases genetic diversity in It increases genetic diversity in the offspring.the offspring.
Stages of MeiosisStages of Meiosis
Most stages are very Most stages are very similar to mitosis!similar to mitosis!– Also begins after the Also begins after the chromosomes have chromosomes have replicated (Interphase)replicated (Interphase)

– By producing varied sex chromosomesBy producing varied sex chromosomes– Notice your siblings are not identical Notice your siblings are not identical even though the same two parents produced even though the same two parents produced them!them!
The arrangement of the chromosomes in The arrangement of the chromosomes in Metaphase IMetaphase I is the key to this is the key to this variation!variation!
How many different sex How many different sex cells?cells?
Because there are many ways to Because there are many ways to arrange the chromosomes during arrange the chromosomes during Metaphase, the following math Metaphase, the following math problem is used to calculate problem is used to calculate the number of DIFFERENT sex the number of DIFFERENT sex cells made:cells made:– 22nn

Other causes of varied Other causes of varied offspring results from mom offspring results from mom giving ½ the chromosomes and giving ½ the chromosomes and dad giving ½dad giving ½
Though each parent gives the Though each parent gives the instructions for the same instructions for the same genes, the version is often genes, the version is often DIFFERENTDIFFERENT– Example: brown hair vs blonde hair Example: brown hair vs blonde hair
