What will I learn?
This focused Meiosis Course provides a straightforward, step-by-step understanding of chromosome organisation, meiotic phases, and the roles of independent assortment and crossing over in creating genetic diversity. Learners will examine nondisjunction, connect errors to human disorders, read karyotypes and prenatal screenings, and acquire useful tools, checkpoints, and insights to teach and use meiosis effectively in practical settings.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Identify and analyse meiotic stages, monitoring ploidy changes, chromatid movements, and key checkpoints.
- Diagnose nondisjunction errors and relate them to aneuploid conditions seen in human karyotypes.
- Calculate genetic variation using formulas like 2^n, along with crossing over and recombination principles.
- Examine karyotypes to detect aneuploidy, mosaicism, and indicators of parental origin.
- Explain meiosis effectively with analogies, visuals, and strategies to address typical learner misconceptions.
