1. There are two types of cell division: mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis occurs in somatic cells during growth and repair and results in identical daughter cells. Meiosis occurs in germ cells and results in gametes with half the number of chromosomes, allowing for genetic variation in offspring.
2. Meiosis has two divisions and involves homologous chromosomes pairing up and crossing over, then separating randomly into four haploid daughter cells. This contributes to genetic diversity.
3. The key differences are that mitosis produces identical somatic cells while meiosis produces egg and sperm cells with half the normal chromosome number to allow for fertilization and genetic recombination.

– Male and female gametes fuse together during fertilization to form a zygote. The chromosome number is halved during the formation of gametes by the process of meiosis. This maintains the chromosome number generations after generations. Meiosis leads to genetic diversity which is very essential for evolution.

1. Describe how variation in meiosis happens and why it is beneficia.pdffashioncollection2
1. Describe how variation in meiosis happens and why it is beneficial? Steps and functions of
mitosis and meiosis? ( I am having a hard time with defining each step in mitosis and meiosis.
There is meiosis I and II and I get confused on the steps with functions. Any ideas how I can
remember?)
TIA :)
Solution
Explanation:-
Variation in meiosis:-
During meiosis in humans, 1 diploid cell (with 46 chromosomes or 23 pairs) undergoes 2 cycles
of cell division but only 1 round of DNA replication. The result is 4 haploidHaving one copy of
each chromosome, or having a single set of chromosomes. Gametes (egg and sperm cells) are
haploid. daughter cells known as gametes or egg and sperm cells (each with 23 chromosomes – 1
from each pair in the diploid cell).
At conception, an egg cell and a sperm cell combine to form a zygote (46 chromosomes or 23
pairs). This is the 1st cell of a new individual. The halving of the number of chromosomes in
gametes ensures that zygotes have the same number of chromosomes from one generation to the
next. This is critical for stable sexual reproduction through successive generations.
Benefits of Meiosis:-
1. New Cell Generation-
The chromosomes created during meiosis are composed of 50% copies of the parent cell and
50% new cells. ‘Â These new cells are produced during the cross-over stages of the cell division
process. ‘Â During this stage half of the genetic material from the parent cell is copied into the
new cells, with the other half having distinct properties and characteristics.
2. DNA Replication
The process of meiosis involves copying or replication of genetic material from the parent cell
into the new cells. ‘Â As much as half of the genetic properties of the parent cell are copied into
the newly-created cells. ‘Â When applied to humans for example, DNA from both parents will
partly be copied onto the cells of their offspring. ‘Â When DNA is copied or replicated, the
offspring will also have similar qualities with either or both of his/her parents.
3. Genetic Variation
With meiosis, only half of the genetic material is replicated into the new cells. ‘Â This simply
means that the remaining half will be composed of unique genetic properties making each cell
different from the other. ‘Â Through this process, humans for example will all have different
genetic material and structure.
With the process involved in meiosis, humans are able to reproduce similar yet distinct offspring.
‘Â The whole process basically explains the fact that babies may share some genetic traits from
their parents but they will also have unique sets of personalities because of their unique genetic
composition.
Meiosis Stages:-
Prophase I
Chromosomes condense, Crossing over occurs
Metaphase I
Homologous chromosomes pair up and align in middle of cell
Anaphase I
Homologous chromosomes pulled apart
Telophase I
Nuclear Envelope reforms
Cytokinesis I
Cell splits into two
Prophase II
Centrioles divide and move to opposite poles
Metaphase II
Chromoso.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

1. CELL DIVISION
Two types: Mitosis, Meiosis:
• MITOSIS: takes place when new cells added to multicellular organisms as they grow and
when tissues are repaired or replaced. Also asexual reproduction can occur as a result of
mitotic division.
• MEIOSIS: occurs in the production of gametes by organisms which reproduce sexually.
The number of chromosomes in the nucleus is fixed for each species. They can be arranged in
homologous pairs e.g. body (somatic) cells of human contain 46 chromosomes, i.e. 23
homologous pairs.
Characteristics of living organisms determined by many pairs of genes called alleles. One of a
pair of allelic genes found on a chromosome. The other on its homologous partner. Each
chromosome carries a number of genes.
Before starting to divide a cell is at the interphase stage.
INTERPHASE: cell has appearance of a non-dividing cell. Chromosomes not visible but present
as chromatin granules. During interphase the DNA duplicates. Formation new cytoplasmic
organelles e.g. ribosomes, mitochondria, chloroplasts. Builds up a sufficient large store of
energy to carry mitosis or meiosis through. The centrioles form two pairs of centrioles before
division begins.
The nucleus divides first followed by cleavage of the cytoplasm.
MITOSIS
For descriptive purposes divided into four stages:
Prophase continuous process - no
Metaphase breaks. Time taken varies -
Anaphase usually between ½ - 3 hrs.
Telophase
PROPHASE
Chromosomes become visible as long, thin entangled threads which become shorter and
thicker. Nucleoli disappear. Centrosomes begin to migrate to opposite poles. As they move
apart the spindle forms. Towards the end of prophase the nuclear membrane disappears.
METAPHASE
biologyexchangecouk-shared-resource4388.doc Page 1 of 5
2. Chromosomes now can be seen to consist of two chromatids. They arrange themselves on the
equator (random). Centromere attaches to spindle.
ANAPHASE
Sister chromatids separate and move to opposite poles. Spindle fibres shorten therefore each
chromatid is dragged centromere first away from equator.
TELOPHASE
On reaching the poles the chromatids come together. A nuclear membrane then surrounds
them. The chromatids become uncoiled, nucleoli reforms and nucleus takes on granular
appearance it had at interphase.
CYTOPLASMIC CLEAVAGE
Soon after nuclear division cytoplasm separates into two.

Followed by interphase, in actively dividing cells lasts between 12-24 hours.

3. SUMMARY
1 Type of cell division which takes places during growth, repair and replacement.
2 Takes place in somatic cells.
3 Basis of asexual reproduction.
4 Daughter cells identical in chromosome number and genetic make-up at the parent cell.
Ensures consistency of genetic information in nuclei of cells of one individual.
5 Chromosomes don’t arrange themselves along equator in homologous pairs during
metaphase.
6 Chromatids separate at anaphase.
MEIOSIS
Occurs in the formation of gametes in organisms which reproduce sexually. Sexual
reproduction is a process of genetic reassortment producing variation. Most is produced by
meiosis. Meiosis results in halving the number of chromosomes in a cell, i.e. meiosis is
reduction division. Meiosis precedes the formation of the male and female gametes. The
gametes therefore contain half the number of chromosomes (haploid or N number), in man
this is 23.
Two successive divisions.
Meiosis I
PROPHASE I:
Early - chromosomes become apparent
Mid - chromosomes come together in homologous pairs (bivalents)
Late - Chromatids become apparent. Bivalent pairs coil around each other. Touch at
certain points - called Chiasmata.
By the end, the nuclear membrane and nucleoli have disappeared. The spindle has formed by
the centrosome which divided at interphase.
METAPHASE I
Bivalents arrange themselves on the equator of the cell and become attached by their
centromeres.
ANAPHASE I
biologyexchangecouk-shared-resource4388.doc Page 3 of 5
4. Shortening of the spindle drags the homologous chromosomes of each bivalent apart, pulling
them to opposite poles of the cell.
TELOPHASE I
Two groups of chromosomes come together at opposite poles. Each group becomes
surrounded by a new nuclear membrane. Chromosomes uncoil, nucleoli reappear.
Cleavage of the cytoplasm occurs in as mitosis.
Daughter cells usually go into a short resting stage (interphase) or may proceed directly into
meiosis II.
Meiosis II
The same as mitosis.
RESULT
Four cells each with the haploid number chromosomes.
• Male - all four will develop into male gametes.
• Female - usually only one develops into female gamete. Produces gametes with varied
combination of genes by:
biologyexchangecouk-shared-resource4388.doc Page 4 of 5
5. 1 Crossing over
• Takes place when bivalents appear in prophase I. Chiasmata are formed and
homologous chromosomes exchange alleles.
• The homologous chromosomes later separate and end up in different gametes. As a
result of crossing over linked genes are parted and gametes with new genomes
produced.
• Function of chiasmata mechanical as well as genetic. Holds the two homologous
chromosomes together while they manoeuvre themselves onto the spindle.
2 Random orientation of chromosomes
Separation of a pair of homologous chromosomes at anaphase I independent of the separation
of other pairs. As the chromosomes are orientated at random the alleles on one pair of
homologous chromosomes separate independently of the alleles on others. Because of
random assortment a vast permutation of genes is possible in the gametes.
Variation results from:
1 Chiasmata formation
2 Random positioning bivalents on equator at metaphase I
3 Random process which male gamete fertilises with female gamete.
SUMMARY
• Location - gonads.
• Reduction division - results in halving number chromosomes.
• Cell division involved in gamete production.
• Four daughter cells formed. Male - all four develop. Female - three abort, one
develops.
• Two divisions occur.
• Chiasmata formation leading to crossing over occurs prophase I resulting in a mixing
of genetic material of the chromosomes.
• Metaphase I - bivalents arrange themselves on equator of cell. Results in further
variation as random which may position themselves.
• Anaphase I - chromosomes separate.
• Daughter cells formed all genetically different from each other and parent cell
