Meiosis ensures the transmission of traits from one generation to the next. at the same time, it is a key process that introduces genetic variation into the traits that offspring inherit from their parents. in this tutorial, you will explore the genetic context of meiosis. this diagram shows a diploid nucleus (2n=8) in which chromosome replication has occurred in preparation for mitosis (top) and meiosis (bottom). the nucleus at top right is now in prophase of mitosis; the nucleus at bottom right is now in prophase i of meiosis. in the life cycle of an organism, meiosis is paired with the process of fertilization. understanding the life cycle of an organism is the key to understanding how sexual reproduction ensures the inheritance of traits from both parents and also introduces genetic variation. meiosis creates gametes (eggs and sperm) with only a single chromosome set (haploid or: from parental cells with two chromosome sets (diploid or 2n).

Multicellular organisms use cell division, mitosis, for growth and the maintenance and repair of cells and tissues. single-celled organisms may use cell division as their method of reproduction. regardless of the reason for mitosis, the process ensures genetic continuity. what is the step in the cell cycle that ensure genetic continuity?

Based on the observation that only male crickets produce a song, you hypothesize that a male's song is a form of communication to potential mates. you set up a simple experiment to test this hypothesis. in the laboratory, you place a male snowy tree cricket in enclosure a, which is adjacent to enclosureb. in enclosure b, you place other insects, one at a time, and observe their responses to the male's song. the enclosures are designed so that the two insects being tested cannot see or smell each other, but sound is transmitted from enclosure a to enclosureb.
