Meiosis II involves prophase II (shortened, thickened chromosomes, nuclear envelope breakdown), metaphase II (alignment of chromosomes at the equator), anaphase II (separation of chromatids to opposite poles), and telophase (cytoplasm division), resulting in 4 non-identical gametes.
Meioza II implică profaza II (cromozomi scurtați, îngroșați, nuclear envelope breakdown), metafaza II (alinierea cromozomilor la ecuator), anafaza II (separarea cromatidelor spre poli opuși) și telofaza (diviziunea citoplasmei), rezultând în 4 gameți non-identici.
| Front | What are the stages of meiosis 2 |
|---|---|
| Back | prophase 2: homologous chromosomes shorten and thicken. Nuclear envelope breaks down centrioles form and move to the opposite poles Metaphase 2: Spindle attaches to centromere Homologous chromosomes align in centre Anaphase 2: Spindle contracts causing chromatids to move to opposite pole Telophase: Cytoplasm divides nuclear envelope forms chromatids become long and thin 4 non-identical gametes produced |
