CSET Meiosis

Subjects : cset, science, biology
Instructions:
  • Answer 22 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Reduced 1/2 set






2. After 2 nuclear divisions in meiosis - _______ result






3. Gives variations in species because of overcrossing Meiosis is a bit different because there something called crossing - over happens with the DNA. This crossing over is an exchange of genes. The genes are mixed up - not resulting in a perfect duplic






4. 4 cells end of meiosis






5. Sexual reproduction of cells - Has 2 division cells - makes 2 complete sets

12. Meiosis can only occur in...






13. A zygote has a _________ chromosome number
