Answer:

both processes of cell division in which cells reproduce

they share similar steps (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telephase, cytokinesis) (meiosis has a second division but still follows the same steps)

Answer:

Meiosis II is very similar to mitosis; chromatids are separated into separate nuclei. As in mitosis, it is spindle fibers that “pull” the chromosomes and chromatids apart. The end result of meiosis is four cells, each with one complete set of chromosomes instead of two sets of chromosomes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps
