Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces haploid gametes from diploid cells in two stages. In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes pair up and separate, resulting in two haploid cells. These cells each undergo meiosis II, where the sister chromatids separate, resulting in four haploid cells that can fuse during fertilization. This ensures genetic variation between offspring and prevents doubling of the chromosome number each generation. Errors during meiosis can result in aneuploidy and genetic disorders.

This PowerPoint presentation contains diagrams and explanations of mitosis, meiosis, and meiotic non-disjunction. It discusses the purpose and mechanisms of mitosis and meiosis, including their roles in cell division and genetic variation. Examples of chromosomal abnormalities resulting from meiotic non-disjunction like Down syndrome are provided.
Meiosis reduces the number of chromosome sets from diploid to haploid in two cell divisions to produce gametes. It begins with chromosome duplication followed by two cell divisions, meiosis I and meiosis II. In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes separate and move to opposite poles, resulting in haploid daughter cells. Meiosis II then separates the sister chromatids, resulting in four haploid daughter cells each with a random assortment of one chromosome from each homologous pair. This ensures genetic variation in the offspring from sexual reproduction.
Chromosomes replicate and pair up during meiosis. Crossing over can lead to an exchange of DNA between homologous non-sister chromatids. This produces new combinations of alleles and chiasmata may form at points of exchange. In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes separate and random orientation leads to independent assortment. Sister chromatids then separate in meiosis II, resulting in four haploid cells each with a unique combination of alleles.
Meiosis is a cell division process that produces haploid gametes from diploid germ cells. It involves two rounds of division and the pairing and separation of homologous chromosomes. This contributes to genetic variation. Crossing over and independent assortment during meiosis I increase the variation among gametes. Non-disjunction, which is the failure of homologous chromosomes to properly separate, can result in conditions like Down syndrome through an extra chromosome.
Crossing over occurs during prophase I of meiosis in eukaryotes. It involves the exchange of genetic material between paired homologous chromosomes, resulting in genetic variation. Tracking crossing over helped scientists determine that genes located farther apart on a chromosome have a greater chance of being exchanged than genes closer together, establishing the concept of genetic linkage. Crossing over ensures the combination of maternal and paternal genes in offspring.

Mitosis and meiosis are two types of cell division. Mitosis produces two identical daughter cells from one parent cell, while meiosis produces four haploid daughter cells from one diploid parent cell. Meiosis involves two rounds of cell division: Meiosis I separates homologous chromosomes and reduces the chromosome number by half, and Meiosis II separates sister chromatids. This allows for genetic variation in the gametes and maintains the chromosome number between generations.
1) Meiosis reduces the number of chromosome sets from diploid to haploid through two cell divisions, resulting in four haploid daughter cells rather than the two produced by mitosis.
2) During meiosis I, homologous chromosome pairs separate and move to opposite poles, while sister chromatids remain attached. This reduces the chromosome number by half.
3) Meiosis II then separates the sister chromatids, resulting in four haploid daughter cells, each with half the number of chromosomes as the original diploid parent cell. This ensures genetic variation between gametes.
Meiosis reduces the chromosome number by half to produce gametes for sexual reproduction. It involves two cell divisions. In the first division, homologous chromosome pairs separate, reducing the number by half. Crossing over and random assortment during meiosis increases genetic variation.

Genetics is the study of how traits are inherited through genes. In humans, somatic cells contain 23 pairs of chromosomes, including 22 pairs of autosomes that are identical in both parents, as well as 1 pair of sex chromosomes. Homologous chromosomes are arranged in pairs and contain different versions of the same genes at corresponding loci from each parent. Meiosis is the process by which germ cells are produced, containing half the number of chromosomes. It involves two cell divisions that result in four haploid cells each with a single set of unpaired chromosomes.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces
haploid gametes from diploid cells.
Two haploid gametes combine in fertilization to
restore the diploid state in the zygote.
3. MEIOSIS
13. Events occurring in the nucleus:
• Chromosomes coil and become individual chromo-
somes, nucleolus and nuclear envelope disappear.
• Homologous chromosomes come together as pairs by
synapsis forming a tetrad (Each pair, with four
chromatids)
• Non-sister chromatids exchange genetic material
through the process of crossing over to ensure genetic
variation.
• Centrioli move to opposite poles with spindle fibers
between them.
MEIOSIS I : PROPHASE I
24. • Daughter chromosomes has
reached the poles.
• Two cells invaginate and form 4
daughter haploid cells
(gametes)
• They uncoil and form
chromatin.
• Nuclear envelope and
nucleolus form around
chromatin again.
• Centrioli form centrosome.
MEIOSIS II: TELOPHASE II
25. SUMMERY OF MEIOSIS II
Prophase II Metaphase II Anaphase II
Haploid daughter
cells forming
Telophase II
and Cytokinesis
26. Mitosis and meiosis both
• begin with diploid parent cells that
• have chromosomes duplicated during the
previous interphase.
However the end products differ.
• Mitosis produces two genetically identical
diploid somatic daughter cells.
• Meiosis produces four genetically unique
haploid gametes.
4. SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES
BETWEEN MITOSIS AND MEIOSIS
33. Trisomy 21 produces a characteristic set of symptoms,
which include:
• mental retardation,
• characteristic facial features,
• short stature,
• heart defects,
• susceptibility to respiratory infections, leukemia,
and Alzheimer’s disease, and
• shortened life span.
The incidence increases with the age of the mother.
34. Nondisjunction is the failure of chromosomes or
chromatids to separate normally during meiosis. This
can happen during:
• meiosis I, if both members of a homologous pair go
to one pole or
• meiosis II if both sister chromatids go to one pole.
Fertilization after nondisjunction yields zygotes with
altered numbers of chromosomes.
B. ACCIDENTS DURING MEIOSIS CAN
ALTER CHROMOSOME NUMBER
42. • a deletion, the loss of a chromosome
segment,
• a duplication, the repeat of a chromosome
segment,
• an inversion, the reversal of a chromosome
segment, or
• a translocation, the attachment of a segment
to a nonhomologous chromosome that can be
reciprocal.
