GRADED|GUARANTEED PASS
Interphase - In preparation for meiosis, the chromosomes replicate
Prophase I - • Replicated chromosomes condense
• Spindle is formed
• Homologous pairs of sister chromatids come together and cross over
• Nuclear membrane disintegrates
Metaphase I - Homologues move toward the center of the cell and line up
Anaphase I - • Beginning of the first cell division that occurs during meiosis
• The homologues are pulled apart toward opposite sides of the cell.
• The maternal and paternal sister chromatids are pulled to the ends of the cell in a random
fashion called random assortment.
Telophase I and Cytokinesis - • The chromosomes arriving at the two poles of the cell
mark this phase.
• The cytoplasm then divides and the cell membrane pinches the cell into two daughter cells.
There is a brief interphase prior to prophase II. Chromosomes are not replicated again at this
stage. (T/F) - True
Prophase II - • Chromosomes in daughter cells condense
• Spindle forms
Metaphase II - Sister chromatids line up at the center of the cell
