MEIOSIS

Meiosis I – Separation of homologous chromosomes to reduce the number of chromosomes by half

INTERPHASE PROPHASE I METAPHASE I

CYTOKINESIS I TELOPHASE I ANAPHASE I

Meiosis II – Separation of sister chromatids to maintain same number of chromosomes

PROPHASE II METAPHASE II ANAPHASE II

CYTOKINESIS II TELOPHASE II

Synapsis and crossing over occur

Tetrads line up on the metaphase

plate

Homologous pairs separate

Chromosomes line up on the metaphase

plate

Sister chromatids separate

4 haploid daughter cells are formed, each having only one chromosomes of each

homologous pair
