To review, meiosis is a special type of cell division that makes gamete cells for sexual reproduction. Meiosis I is the first of the two meiotic divisions during which the number of chromosomes in the cell is reduced by half. Prophase I is the first step in meiosis I. During prophase I,...

Examples include Mucor, which has the typical fungal hyphal structure, and yeast which is single-celled.Bacteria: These are microscopic single-celled organisms; they have a cell wall, cell membrane, cytoplasm and plasmids; they lack a nucleus but contain a circular chromosome of DNA; some bacteri...

During cell division, chromosome segregation is crucially dependent on assembly of the microtubule spindle apparatus and establishment of stable chromosome-microtubule interactions for correct attachment to opposite spindle poles. Importantly, meiotic spindle formation in mammalian oocytes differs from mitosis in...

BREEDING SCHEMES Three-breed rotation Four and Five-breed rotation: The pattern of breeding is the same as in a two-breed system, except that a bull from a third breed is used in the rotation of sires. Four and Five-breed rotation: Used in large herds A fourth of fifth bull is added...
