Mitosis and Meiosis Made Easy: PMAT Stages and Steps with Homologous Pairs
Page 2: Meiosis Stages and Cell Division
This page details the Steps of meiosis with homologous pairs, explaining both PMAT I and PMAT II sequences. The process results in the formation of four haploid cells.
Example: During Metaphase I, homologous pairs align side by side in the middle of the cell, unlike in mitosis where they form a single file line.
Highlight: Meiosis involves two rounds of division (PMAT I and PMAT II) to produce four haploid cells.
Page 3: Comparing Mitosis and Meiosis
The page outlines key Differences between meiosis and mitosis, including their purposes and outcomes.
Definition: Somatic cells are body cells produced through mitosis, while gametes are sex cells produced through meiosis.
Vocabulary: A zygote is defined as a fertilized egg, while polar bodies are non-viable cells produced during female meiosis.
Highlight: Mitosis produces diploid cells (2n), while meiosis produces haploid cells (n).
Page 4: Cell Types and Reproduction Methods
This section compares prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, and explains sexual versus asexual reproduction.
Definition: Prokaryotic cells are simple, single-celled organisms without a nucleus, while eukaryotic cells are complex cells with a nucleus.
Example: Bacteria are prokaryotic organisms, while plants and animals are eukaryotic.
Page 5: Cell Cycles and Twin Formation
The page explains cell cycles in detail, including chromosome behavior during different phases.
Highlight: The cell cycle includes G1 (growth), S (DNA synthesis), G2 (preparation for division), and M (mitosis) phases.
Definition: Monozygotic twins result from a single fertilized egg splitting, while dizygotic twins develop from two separate fertilized eggs.
Page 6: Artificial Fertilization and Genetics
This section covers in vitro fertilization and introduces basic genetic concepts.
Definition: In vitro fertilization is a medical procedure where eggs are fertilized outside the body and then implanted in the uterus.
Vocabulary: Dominant genes mask recessive genes and are symbolized by capital letters.
Page 7: Genetic Terms and Concepts
The final page focuses on genetic terminology and inheritance patterns.
Definition: Heterozygous organisms possess two different alleles for a trait (Tt), while homozygous organisms have two identical alleles (TT or tt).
Vocabulary: Genotype refers to the actual genetic makeup, while phenotype is the expressed trait.
Page 7: Genetic Terms and Concepts
Understanding genetic terminology is crucial for comprehending inheritance patterns.
Vocabulary:
- Heterozygous: Having two different alleles for a trait
- Homozygous: Having two identical alleles for a trait
- Genotype: Genetic makeup
- Phenotype: Observable traits
Example: A heterozygous organism (Tt) carries both dominant and recessive alleles.
Page 1: Understanding PMAT Stages in Mitosis
The first page introduces the fundamental stages of mitosis through the PMAT sequence. The stages are broken down into Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase, with detailed explanations of cellular components involved.
Definition: PMAT stands for Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase - the four main stages of mitotic cell division.
Vocabulary: Homologous pairs are matching chromosomes, one from each parent, that carry genes for the same traits.
Highlight: The presence of homologous pairs is a key indicator in determining the stage of cell division - they are present in mitosis before telophase I.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

Knowunity is the BEST app I’ve used in a minute. This is not an ai review or anything this is genuinely coming from a 7th grade student (I know 2011 im young) but dude this app is a 10/10 i have maintained a 3.8 gpa and have plenty of time for gaming. I love it and my mom is just happy I got good grades

Not only did it help me find the answer but it also showed me alternative ways to solve it. I was horrible in math and science but now I have an a in both subjects. Thanks for the help🤍🤍

The app's just great! All I have to do is enter the topic in the search bar and I get the response real fast. I don't have to watch 10 YouTube videos to understand something, so I'm saving my time. Highly recommended!

In school I was really bad at maths but thanks to the app, I am doing better now. I am so grateful that you made the app.

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend

Best app if you're in Highschool or Junior high. I have been using this app for 2 school years and it's the best, it's good if you don't have anyone to help you with school work.😋🩷🎀

THE QUIZES AND FLASHCARDS ARE SO USEFUL AND I LOVE THE SCHOOLGPT. IT ALSO IS LITREALLY LIKE CHATGPT BUT SMARTER!! HELPED ME WITH MY MASCARA PROBLEMS TOO!! AS WELL AS MY REAL SUBJECTS ! DUHHH 😍😁😲🤑💗✨🎀😮

This app is phenomenal down to the correct info and the various topics you can study! I greatly recommend it for people who struggle with procrastination and those who need homework help. It has been perfectly accurate for world 1 history as far as I’ve seen! Geometry too!
