Categorize the following into mitosis or meiosis

Has two rounds of cell division
Is intended to repair tissue or grow the organism
Produces cells with half of the genetic material in them
Produces 4 cells
In a human it only in the ovaries or testes
Produces haploid cells
Produces two new cells
Produces identical cells (identical to each other and to the parent) as long as there are no mutations
Makes sex cells/gametes
Produces diploid cells
Produces cells that can be used in sexual reproduction

Homologous pairs

Sister chromatids

Sister chromatids

Homologous pairs

Spindle fibers pull apart the sister chromatids
Spindle fibers move chromosomes to the midline of the cell (not in pairs)
Spindle fibers continue to be formed
Nuclear envelope breaks down (if two new nuclei were formed in the previous step)
Spindle fibers break down
The DNA uncoils
The cell divides into 4 new haploid cells
The number of chromosomes doubles in the cell
Spindle fibers stretch out the cell
DNA coils and chromosomes form (if the DNA uncoiled in the previous step)
4 new nuclei form

Order the following steps of meiosis

Metaphase 2

Anaphase 2

Prophase 2

Metaphase 1

Telophase 1/Cytokinesis

Telophase 2/Cytokinesis

Anaphase 1

Prophase 1

Which of the following is separated in meiosis 1

Homologous pairs

Sister chromatids

Which of the following is separated in meiosis 2

Sister chromatids

Homologous pairs

Sort the following into each step of meiosis 1.

DNA coils and chromosomes form

Centrioles produce spindle fibers

2 new nuclei may form

Cell divides into 2

Spindle fibers move tetrads to the midline of the cell

Spindle fibers that aren't connected to chromosomes start to stretch the cell

The nuclear envelope breaks down

Spindle fibers break down

Crossing over occurs

Tetrads form

Spindle fibers pull apart the homologous pairs (separating the tetrads)

Prophase 1

Metaphase 1

Anaphase 1

Telophase 1/Cytokinesis

Categorize the following into the steps of meiosis 2

Spindle fibers pull apart the sister chromatids

Spindle fibers move chromosomes to the midline of the cell (not in pairs)

Spindle fibers continue to be formed

Nuclear envelope breaks down (if two new nuclei were formed in the previous step)

Spindle fibers break down

The DNA uncoils

The cell divides into 4 new haploid cells

The number of chromosomes doubles in the cell

Spindle fibers stretch out the cell

DNA coils and chromosomes form (if the DNA uncoiled in the previous step)

4 new nuclei form

Identify the following cells as products of mitosis or meiosis. I am only giving you an image of one of the cells.

A product of mitosis

A product of meiosis

Categorize the following as a step in mitosis or a step in meiosis. I am only showing you one cell in each diagram.

FYI: the top and bottom chromosomes are intended to be the same size
