Question :Name a cell that is found arrested in diplotene stage for months and years. Comment in 2-3 lines how it completes cell cycle ?

Answer»

Solution :In egg cells of mammals generally the process of occurring meiosis becomes stagnant is normal. In female, meiosis begins from embryo when CHROMOSOMES get together, and proceed TILL Diplotene, cell is seen in dictuate phase. This stagnancy is under regulation of hormones.
In this phase FORMATION of Lampbrush chromosomes is a peculiarity seen when RNA synthesis TAKES place and genes LOCATED in DNA undergo transcription and expression.

Question : Name a cell that is found arrested in diplotene stage for months and years. Comment in 2-3 lines how it completes cell cycle ?

Answer»

Solution :Meiotic arrest at diplotene stage commonly occurs in mammalian occytes. In females, meiosis starts in the embryo and PROCEEDS as for as diplotene, when the chromosomes become diffused and the cells are referred to as being in the dictuate stage. This arrest is under hormonal control.
In many amphibian OOCYTES BINDS and insects with a long period of IMMATURITY, the oocyte may be arrested in the dictyate stage for many YEARS and spend a prolonged period in diplotene.
This stage is characterised by formation of lampbrush chromosomers where intense RNA synthesis occurs and most of the genes in the DNA loops are actively transcrbed and expressed.
