A literal god among men. A being of pure science has descended to the earth in order to spread his knowledge so even a numskull like me can understand him perfectly and actually remember the lesson.
Mr Anderson's ability to demonstrate and explain all the scientific / biological processes terms is so superb. He does it so well and it just sticks with you no matter how hard the material seems, Mr. Anderson makes everything seem learn-able!! Thank you so much for your amazing help and videos!
I think the real problem comes down to pace. Everyone works at a different pace and unfortunately when learning in a classroom or lecture you can't. So as soon as you don't understand something, you can't rewind a video or pause it, you have to try and catch up and so then everything spirals out of control and you end up learning bits of pieces of the lecture but not being able to understand anything fully. I spent a good 8 - 12 min on this meiosis video (after first learning mitosis), went at my own pace, and I understand everything. WE ALL WORK AT DIFFERENT PACES

I have literally watched about 15 videos on meiosis and this is hands down, the best explanation there is. Great visuals and a thorough explanation of the process.
I believe one of the many reasons why these videos are so helpful is because when you watch these, you aren't in the classroom environment, and therefore you're actually focused on the teacher rather than any distractions! nevertheless, great video! thank you for making my AS level that much easier!!
FINALLY someone who actually makes sense! i went into this knowing that it was easy but for some reason could not get it in my head right. Thank you for finally clearing this up!
Took my professor 2 hours to explain meiosis, when you did it in 8 minutes. I have a better understanding of it after watching your video, than when my prof. taught it.
Thank you so much! My midterm is on Monday and we just finished learning this chapter on Wednesday so I've been panic cramming and this is the only video that's explained things clearly. You are a life savor!
After DAYS of searching for a clear explanation, I come upon this and strike GOLD. To say thank you seem trite, but thank you--I appreciate this so much!
I'm studying to pass a registration exam for doing a masters in experimental biology, and sofar you have been one of the best professors i have had in my life.
why cant you be my teacher for everything. Im only 10 yrs old but i have such a strong passion for science and math and i watch your videos for reference and learning all the time. You make everything 10 milllion times easier. I just wanted to say a HUGE thanks for all your work +Bozeman Science
OMG thank you sooooooooooo much. You have helped all of my friends do good in biology. No one understood the teacher, but when I saw you video, I was saved. Thank You sooooooo much.
When are the chromosomes getting haploid? In mitosis the chromatids where separated and they remained diploid...here...there is crossing over.. But finally the chromatids are separated...so when exactly is the cell getting haploid?
After meiosis II. The difference is that the DNA isn't replicated during this phase, so in mitosis you actually end up with 92 chromosomes after S phase, then they are split into 46 for each diploid cell. During meiosis two the 46 chromosomes in each diploid cell that is produced by meiosis I are split at the centromeres producing 23 chromosomes for each haploid.
It was helpful, I wish there was more detailed, it was kind of rushed, and you lacked using terminology like sister chromatids and homologous chromosomes when needed, but thanks.
Thank you so so much for this video 😭🙏 I have a quiz on this in mere hours and am just starting to figure it out. You really walked me through every single thing! I should've watched your video on mitosis before my quiz last week...🤧
WOW That’s the best explanation I have ever have ever had in my whole life!! Every question I was thinking about is resolved! I was really wondering about how chromosomes are oriented in the first metaphase and NO VIDEO that I wachted mention this..
I loved this, I just had one question...doesn't the spindle apparatus attach to the kinetochore NOT the centromere? I learned that the two are not the same term, the centromere connects the homologues/sister chromatids together, and the kinetochore is a protein bundle that is the site of attachment for the microtubules in the spindle apparatus?
Yes, but the kinetochores are near/on top of the centromere. The centromere is a region where the two sister chromatids are attached but the spindles are attached to the kinetochores in this general region.
I think when he says a pair of chromosomes from each parent he means the person's parents- let's say this was happening in your body, the pair of chromosomes would come one from your mom and the other from your dad. you would form four daughter cells which have only haploid (23) chromosomes that will later fuse with your partners cell to form a zygote- with 46 chromosomes (or 23 pairs)
Best vid on meiosis! Was more specific than others which helped to clarify concepts like the paternal and maternal parts of the chromosome. Thanks Paul!
Man, I took honors bio and take AP Bio right now and this entire time I couldn't find an explanation I could understand for Independent Assortment until I watched this video Thank you so much!!
extremely clear and concise, I would love to see you go into more depth but I realize that this is more of an intro video to meiosis. Still extremely helpful, thanks for sharing!
Great explanation - Very helpful as I'm self-teaching biology. Some parts were a little too quick.. for me at least! But nothing going back and watching a few aspects again couldn't fix. Thanks, Bozeman.
I Peed On The M-A-T-T! (Ha! Ha!) That's actually the way I was taught to memorize the phases! I had an awesome teacher (luckily the same 1) for all my Anatomy & Physiology classes in high school! Thanks for posting this! It's a great refresher! :)
I hve exam tomorrow but i cant undersatnd to see the book and undersatnd when I saw this video OMG i hve completed 1 chp of my book..........thanks a lot.......very much helpful
