Can someone explain meiosis 1 and ii to me like i'm a baby? (i really don't understand it! ) 15 pts

Meiosis 1 is when the homologous chromosomes separate and crossing over occurs. Meiosis 2 is when the sister chromatids seperate and produces 4 haploid daughter cells.

Explanation:

The phases of Meiosis 1 are, Interphase, Prophase 1, Metaphase 1, Anaphase 1, Telophase 1 & Cytokinesis.

Interphase: DNA is replicated and organic material is synthesized.

Prophase 1: Chromosomes pair up

Metaphase 1: Crossing Over occurs and chromosomes line up at the equator.

Anaphase 1: Chromosomes pull apart

Telophase 1 & Cytokinesis: Cell pinches to both sides and begins to pull apart as the cytoplasm is copied.

The phases of Meiosis 2 are, Prophase 2, Metaphase 2, Anaphase 2, Telophase 2 & Cytokinesis.

Prophase 2: Two daughter cells are formed

Metaphase 2: Chromosomes line up at equator of both cells.

Anaphase 2: Sister chromatids are pulled apart in each cell.

Telophase 2 & Cytokinesis: The cells pinch to both sides as the cytoplasm is replicated and four granddaughter cells are formed.

both anaerobic and aerobic respiration use glucose (or other carbohydrates), proteins and lipids to produce atp and nadh. cell uses those energy molecules, obtained from food and   breaks them down during the chemical reactions of respiration. in anaerobic respiration, nadh is regenerated to nad+ by enzymes lactate dehydrogenase (lactate is produced, e.g. in muscle cells) or by alcohol dehydrogenase where ethanol is produced (alcohol fermentation), while in aerobic respiration, electrons from nadh are deposited in the mitochondria to regenerate nad+ (electron transport chain. anaerobic respiration produces 2 atp per molecule of glucose compared to aerobic respiration where about 38 atp molecules are produced.
