    Study Notes

    Meiosis

    • Four daughter cells are typically produced by meiosis.

    Tetrads Formation

    • The synaptonemal complex is the most important structure in forming the tetrads.

    Separation of Sister Chromatids

    • Sister chromatids are separated from each other at anaphase II.

    Metaphase I

    • At metaphase I, homologous chromosomes are connected only at chiasmata.

    Crossover

    • Crossover is not a random process, and it is not the same as genetic recombination.
