Question

What are the two key stages of meiosis after prophase 1 ?

Answer 1

There are two divisions in meiosis; the first division is meiosis I: the number of cells is doubled but the number of chromosomes is not. This results in 1/2 as many chromosomes per cell. The second division is meiosis II: this division is like mitosis; the number of chromosomes does not get reduced.

Answer 2

The second division is meiosis II: this division is like mitosis; the number of chromosomes does not get reduced.
