Choose the correct order of phases in the cell cycle? Hint: (M = Mitotic phase)

Mendel was able to devise the law of [blank1] because all of the genes for the traits he looked at were on different chromosomes.  If two genes are on the same chromosome, they may be passed into gametes together, giving unexpected phenotypic ratios in the offspring.  This is known as [blank2].

Match each description to the correct stage of mitosis. Note:  these are NOT in the correct order — they are in a random order

Huntington’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disease in which symptoms typically appear starting in middle age. It is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. A man has an aunt with Huntington’s; the aunt is his mother’s sister.  The man’s mother died in a car accident when she was fairly young, before symptoms of the disease typically manifest.  Before having children of his own, should the man be tested for Huntington’s? Why?  

The exchange of genetic information between homologous chromosomes during meiosis is called…
