your note packet to fill in your summary section in your
note packet describing the process and purpose of
Meiosis. Also fill in the questions column with potential
quiz questions regarding Meiosis.

1. List 3 examples of genetic variation that occurs in
humans.
2. List 3 examples of genetic variation that occurs in
other populations.
3. Why is genetic variation important?
4. What may result if a population lacks genetic
variation? Give an example.
5. How is genetic variation created in populations?

1. Traits within populations are influenced by both
genes and the environment. Give 3 examples of how
a human trait is the result of both genetics and
environmental influences.
2. Read the examples of diseases on the sheet at the
lab table. If it is an example of a genetic disease, mark
“G” or if it is an example of an environmentallycaused disease, mark “E”.

One of our guiding questions is “What happens when
Meiosis goes wrong?” Give 2 examples of chromosomal
mutations that are result of errors in Meiosis. For each
example describe:
1. How did Meiosis go wrong? What was the effect on
the chromosomes?
2. What was the result of this error in Meiosis?
*You may need to refer to the chromosomal mutation
presentations.
