Prophase I-DNA condensed, homologous chromosomes pair up

Metaphase I-homologous pairs line up and metaphase plate. Spindle apparatus is formed and is connected to centromeres

Anaphase I- homologous pairs are separated, move to opposite ends of cell

Telophase I-nuclear envelopes begin to from and cytokinesis will occur


Prophase II-DNA condenses again

Metaphase II- chromosomes will line up at metaphase plate, spindle apparatus will be formed and connected to centromeres

Anaphase II- sister chromatids will be separated and will move to opposite ends of cell

Telophase II- nuclear envelope will form, cytokinesis will occur
