Explain each phase of meiosis.

  • Interphase: Chromosomes duplicate, resulting in each homologous chromosome pair having sister chromatids

  • Meiosis I: Homologous chromosomes separate, reducing the chromosome number by half

  • Meiosis II: Sister chromatids separate, resulting in four haploid daughter cells.
