Meiosis produces gametes through two rounds of cell division beginning with one diploid cell and ending with four haploid cells. In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes pair and separate, reducing the chromosome number by half. Meiosis II separates sister chromatids, further dividing the cell and its genetic material. The steps of crossing over and independent assortment in meiosis I contribute to genetic variation among gametes and offspring.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
2. Homologous chromosomes
• Pair of chromosomes that
one comes from the male
parent and the corresponding Homologous
one from the female parent chromosomes
Homologous ≠ identical Alleles
same genes in same loci
same length
same shape
may not the same alleles
for one gene
3. Diploid & Haploid Cells
• two copies of each • one copy of each
chromosome chromosome
• homologous pairs • no homologous pairs
• body cells • gametes (sex cells)
Sperm
Egg
5. The purpose of meiosis
is to produce gametes.
A (haploid) gamete
(sex cell, sperm or egg
cell) has half the
number of
chromosomes compared
to a (diploid) somatic
cell (body cell). A male
and a female gamete
may then fuse to form a
zygote, which will have
the same number of
chromosomes as a
somatic cell.
6. Human chromosomes

– 1st-22nd pairs:

9. Karyotype (the type of nucleus)
• The number and appearance of the chromosomes in an
organism
10. Karyotyping
• Arrange the chromosomes in pairs
according to their size and structure
• Collect cells
• Culture cells
• Stop cell division at metaphase
• Staining chromosome
• Pair (Length, Shape, Position of
centromeres, Bands)
• Diagnosis (number, gender,
abnormality)

21. Synapsis & Crossing over
• The key to the process of
meiosis is the Synapsis in
Prophase I and the splitting of
the homologues in Anaphase I.
• One event that can take place
during meiosis is crossing
over.
• Crossing over is the exchange
of genetic material between two
homologous chromosomes
which have paired up during
Prophase I.
• The result of crossing over is
genetic recombination.
