Prophase I is when the DNA begins to coil allowing the individual chromosomes (in the form of tetrads) to become visible when looked at through a microscope. The nucleus disappears. This is the longest phase of meiosis. Genetic recombination occurs during prophase when chromosmes cross over swapping information and giving you the mixture of DNA that you have...

Metaphase 1

tlaabraham305 — 2014-06-12 18:02:29 UTC

Orientation of homologous pairs along

equatorial plate is random to allow for independent assortment.

Anaphase II

2014-06-12 18:03:26 UTC

Sister chromatids of each chromosome separate and move to opposite poles. The nuclear membrane begins to form around the chromatids, which are now called chromosomes.

Meta II

Chromosomes arrange themselves. Two chromatids form at the equatorial plate. Chromatids remain attached at the centromere. Spindle fibres attach at the centromere.

Anaphase I

2014-06-12 18:04:50 UTC

The homologous chromosomes move towards opposite poles (this process is known as segregation). Reduction devision occurs now. One member of each homologous pair will be found in each of the new cells. Each chromosome consists of two sister chromatids.

Telophase I

tlaabraham305 — 2014-06-12 18:10:58 UTC

Separation of daughter cells with half the number of

chromosomes as original cell.
