(*) Turner's syndrome occurs from an anomaly in this process, and a similar "nondisjunction" event causes the XXY genotype.
PRDM9 is a histone methyltransferase specific to this phenomenon, and SC proteins are essential to the formation of the synaptonemal complex during it. Its first step includes leptotene and pachytene stages, and is ended by diakinesis. (*) Turner's syndrome occurs from an anomaly in this process, and a similar "nondisjunction" event causes the XXY genotype. This process produces three polar bodies and a mature ovum in females. The first phase of this process results in a two n to n chromosomal reduction, and the second phase of this germ cell process results in four daughter cells. For 10 points, name this process of cell division usually contrasted with mitosis.
