1. Describe a useful model of meiosis. How might scientists or science students benefit from this model? 2. During meiosis I, how could you have arranged the chromosomes in a different way? How do the differences affect the end result of meiosis?

3. Chromosomes contain DNA. DNA codes for the traits that are passed from parents to offspring. Pose a question about the inheritance of traits that could be investigated with your model.

4. How does meiosis differ from mitosis? Why is meiosis essential for sexual reproduction?

5. A kitten has mostly gray fur, but there are patches of white fur around its eyes, ears, and belly. Neither of the two parents of the kitten have any white patches. Use your model to explain how genetic variations, such as fur patterns, can result from meiosis.

6. In asexual reproduction, only one parent contributes to offspring. The offspring are genetically the same as the parent and one another. Does this process involve mitosis, meiosis, or both? Explain your reasoning.
