Q. No.Males produce gametes by mitosis in:
1.
Honey bees
2.
Grasshopper
3.
Birds
4.
Drosophila melanogaster
The paired homologues seen during zygotene of meiosis I are known as:
| 1. | Bivalent | 2. | Tetrad |
| 3. | Mitotic apparatus | 4. | Sister chromosomes |
Which of the following is not a feature of diakinesis stage of prophase I of meiosis I?
1. Terminalization of chiasmata
2. Meiotic spindle assembling to prepare separation of homologues
3. Decondensation of the chromatin
4. NEBD and disappearance of nucleolus
Meiosis results in the formation of:
1. Two genetically identical diploid cells
2. Two genetically non identical diploid cells
3. Four genetically identical haploid cells
4. Four genetically non identical haploid cells
The beginning of diplotene is recognized by:
| I: | dissolution of the synaptonemal complex |
| II: | the tendency of recombined homologues of bivalents to separate |
| III: | tetrads becoming clearly visible |
| 1. | Only I and II | 2. | Only I and III |
| 3. | Only II and III | 4. | I, II, and III |
During anaphase I of meiosis
1. Homologous chromosomes separate
2. Non-homologous autosomes separate
3. Sister chromatids separate
4. Non-sister chromatids separate
In meiosis:
| 1. | A single round of DNA replication is followed by two sequential divisions with chromosome number and DNA content getting reduced twice |
| 2. | A single round of DNA replication is followed by two sequential divisions with chromosome number getting reduced twice and DNA content getting reduced once |
| 3. | A single round of DNA replication is followed by two sequential divisions with chromosome number getting reduced once and DNA content getting reduced twice |
| 4. | A single round of DNA replication is followed by two sequential divisions with chromosome number and DNA content getting reduced once |
The mechanisms that contribute to the genetic variation arising from sexual reproduction include:
| I: | Independent assortment of chromosomes |
| II: | Crossing over |
| III: | Random fertilization |
| 1. | I and II only | 2. | I and III only |
| 3. | II and III only | 4. | I, II and III |
A ribbon-like structure consisting of three protein components and extending across the region of synapsed chromosomes during the prophase of meiosis, is called:
| 1. | Phragmoplast | 2. | Phragmosome |
| 3. | Synaptonemal complex | 4. | Recombination nodule |
The point of contact between paired chromatids during meiosis, resulting in a cross-shaped configuration and representing the cytological manifestation of crossing over is called:
| 1. | Centromere | 2. | Centrosome |
| 3. | Chiasmata | 4. | Tetrad |
