A strong correlation exists between the 1C DNA amount and the total haploid chromatin length (THCL) (Levin, 2002). Peruzzi et al., (2009) reported that for a species, the 1Cx (monoploid genome size) estimate can be inferred from the mean THCL and 1Cx values for its genus. This ...
Mitosis in O. varians is characterized by an intact nuclear envelope with polar fenestrae, persistent nucleolar material, and an intranuclear spindle. During metaphase the polar fenestrae are apparent and there is no alignment of chromatin at the equatorial plate. Anaphase is marked by the ...
Why is it important in cell division for chromosomes to be transmitted unchanged to daughter cells? Discuss the importance of mitosis. What is IMPORTANT about sister chromatids in metaphase? What is the major structural difference between chromatin and chromosomes?
In metaphase 1 of meiosis, the homologous chromosomes line up side by side along the equator so that crossing over can occur between the homologous pairs and the homologous chromosomes can be pulled to opposite poles during anaphase 1. In mitosis, homolog ...
and monitored chromatin digestion in normal and mutant metaphase-I spermatocytes, identified by PLK1 and ARID2 IF (Fig.3c). Susceptibility to MNase digestion was qualitatively assessed by DAPI staining, which provided a measure of accessibility. The metaphase plate appeared shredded inArid2WTspermatocyte...
Thus, in the absence of chromatin and kinetochore-localized force generators/couplers, mitotic chromo- somes are distributed throughout the spindle and have their axes oriented parallel to the spindle axis. This nematic alignment, where the longitudinal axes of chromosomes and microtubules are in ...
9.25D). After the latter region, there is a small region (the only region) in which one can see meiotic metaphase figures. Klass et al. interpreted that both meiotic divisions occur in this small region. Mature sperm with condensed nuclei follow this region and can be seen in the seminal...

e. metaphase II.When the homologous chromosomes pair up at Prophase 1 in meiosis for the production of gametes, are the homologous chromosomes referring to the maternal and paternal chromosomes? Because at this point, fertilization hasn't occurred, so there ...
