Presentation transcript:

KEY CONCEPT Gametes have half the number of chromosomes that body cells have.

You have body cells and gametes. Body cells are also called somatic cells. Gametes come from germ cells. Germ cells are located in the ovaries and testes. Gametes are sex cells: egg and sperm. Gametes have DNA that can be passed to offspring. body cells sex cells (sperm) sex cells (egg)

Your cells have Autosomes and sex chromosomes. Your body cells have 23 pairs of chromosomes. Homologous pairs of chromosomes have the same structure. For each homologous pair, one chromosome comes from each parent. Chromosome pairs 1-22 are autosomes. (Contains genes not related to the sex of an organism). Sex chromosomes, X and Y, determine gender in mammals.

Sex Chromosomes: Directly control the development of sexual characteristics. XX = Female XY = Male X Chromosomes are larger with many genes, some not sex related. Y Chromosome is small and contains genes directed to the development of testes and other male traits.

Body cells are diploid; gametes are haploid. Fertilization between egg and sperm occurs in sexual reproduction. Diploid (2n) cells have two copies of every chromosome. Body cells are diploid. Half the chromosomes come from each parent.

Haploid (n) cells have one copy of every chromosome. Gametes are haploid. Gametes have 22 autosome chromosomes and 1 sex chromosome.

. Mitosis and meiosis are types of nuclear division that make different types of cells. Mitosis occurs in body cells.

Meiosis is a nuclear division that makes haploid cells from diploid cells. Germ cells in the reproductive organ undergo MEIOSIS to form Gametes.
