Meiosis
•
Function
Reduction division (23 chromosomes per gamete) reassortment of genes by:
• crossing-over
• independent segregation of chromosomes
•
Mechanism
Each homologue (e.g. “chromosome 7”) replicates to give two sister chromatids
Homologues pair (e.g. maternal chromosome 7 and paternal chromosome 7)
Exchange of material between non-sister chromatids: crossing-over, recombination
Chiasmata (visible cytologically) are the physical manifestations of crossing-over

A homologous pair of parental
chromosomes (e.g.
chromosome 7)
Gene re-assortment by
crossing-over
In meiosis I each chromosome duplicates producing two
sister chromatids

Oocytes, time and the completion of meiosis
The stock of oocytes is ready by 5 months gestation. Each
remains in maturation arrest at the crossing-over stage
until ovulation
There may be a lengthy interval
between onset and completion
of meiosis (up to 50 years later)
Each month one is ovulated
Meiosis I not
completed until
ovulation
Polar body
Accumulating effects on the
primary oocyte during this
phase may damage the cell’s
spindle formation and repair
mechanisms predisposing to
non-disjunction.

The stages of meiosis.
Meiosis is used only for the
production of sperm and eggs.
It consists of two successive cell
divisions, producing four
daughter cells (although in
oogenesis only one of these
develops into a mature oocyte;
the others form the polar
bodies).
Meiosis has two main functions:
to reduce the chromosome
number in the gamete to 23, and
to ensure that every gamete is
genetically unique.

Examples of chromosomes
during meiosis.
(a)
Two cells from a testicular biopsy
showing chromosomes during
prophase I of male meiosis. Each
of the 23 structures is a bivalent,
consisting of two homologous
chromosomes, each having two
chromatids. Note the end-to-end
pairing of the X and Y
chromosomes.
(b)
A bivalent seen in meiosis in an
amphibian, which has large
chromosomes that make the fourstranded structure clear.

The effects of
non-disjunction in
meiosis.
The non-disjunction
involves only the single
pair of chromosomes
(meiosis I) or the single
chromosome (meiosis II)
shown; all the other
chromosomes (not
shown) disjoin and
segregate normally.

Possible ways the
chromosomes could segregate
in the first meiotic division.
During prophase 1, matching
chromosome segments pair,
resulting in a cross-shaped
tetravalent containing the normal
and translocated copies of
chromosomes 1 and 22.
At anaphase 1 they pull apart, and
the diagram shows various ways this
could happen.
The gamete that gave rise to Baby
Elliot is circled. Other more complex
segregation patterns (3:1
segregation) are also possible.

During meiosis I matching
chromosome segments
pair. If one chromosome
has an inversion compared
to its homolog, they
usually form a looped
structure.
