Meiosis and Crossing Over

Meiosis and Crossing Over

 

Objectives

• To recognize the events that occur during cell cycle
• To recognize how crossing over occurs between chromosomes
• Identification and comparison of cells undergone meiosis, calculation of crossing over percentage and the distance of the gene from the centromere as genetic map units
• Identification of recombinant chromosomes that were created by crossing over
• To design a model that illustrates meiosis and crossing over
