Meiosis Webquest Biology
Name: ________________________ Date: ___________ Period: _______
Learning Target: I can evaluate the role of meiosis as it relates to the development of sex cells in the human body. PART B: Meiosis Please go to the following webpage: http://www.cellsalive.com/meiosis.htm 1. Why is the meiosis important? __________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________ 2. Start the animation. What do the chromosomes do in Prophase I? _____________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________ __ 3. Compare how chromosomes line up on the equator (for separation) in Metaphase I and II? Include a diagram. ___________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________
4. In which phase are the number of chromosomes divided in half? _______________________ Is this part of meiosis I or meiosis II? ______________________________ 5. Label the following steps of Meiosis using the image below: #1:_______________________________________ #2:_______________________________________ #3:_______________________________________ #4:_______________________________________ #5:_______________________________________ #6:_______________________________________ #7:_______________________________________
6. How does mitosis and meiosis play a role in the growth and development of the human body? Use all the information you have read and learned so far to answer this question. __________________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________ PART C: Comparing and Contrasting Mitosis and Meiosis Visit the following web pages and any other reliable sources that you can find on the internet to compare and contrast mitosis and meiosis. http://www.biology.arizona.edu/CELL_BIO/tutorials/meiosis/problems.html http://www.cellsalive.com/meiosis.htm http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/nova/baby/divide.html#
