Nov. 25	9-11 LS1I Egg and sperm cells are formed by a process called meiosis in which each resulting cell contains only one representative chromosome from each pair found in the original cell. Recombination of genetic information during meiosis scrambles the genetic information, allowing for new genetic combinations and characteristics in the offspring. Fertilization restores the original number of chromosome pairs and reshuffles the genetic information, allowing for variation among offspring	Page 363 Stop and Think Part 1 1-2,	Any unfinished classwork	Describe and model the process of meiosis in which egg and sperm cells are formed with only one set of chromosomes from each parent. Model and explain the process of genetic recombination that may occur during meiosis and how this then results in differing characteristics in offspring. Describe the process of fertilization that restores the original chromosome number while reshuffling the genetic information, allowing for variation among offspring
