New cards

Meiosis I

- creates 2 haploid daughter cells
- daughter cells have only half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell

Prophase I

- The nuclear envelope breaks down
- Chromosomes condense
- crossing over occurs here

Metaphase I

- Homologous chromosomes line up at the center of the cell (independent assortment)
- "Middle"

New cards

Anaphase I

- Homologous chromosomes separate
- Move to opposite poles of the cell
- "Apart"

New cards

Meiosis II

- sister chromatids in the two daughter cells separate
- each dividing cell has only one set of homologous chromosomes
- no DNA is replicated
- creates 4 haploid daughter cells
