meiosis study Flashcards
Anaphase I
Spindle fibers pull chromosomes to opposite sides
Anaphase II
Sister chromatids pull apart
Interphase
Cells undergo a round of DNA replication before meiosis
Metaphase I
Chromosomes line up in pairs on equator
Metaphase II
Chromosomes line up on equator not in pairs
Telophase II
Nuclear membrane reforms,cytoplasm divides, 4 daugther cells are formed
Prophase I
crossing over occurs
Prophase II
chromosomes condense nuclear membrane disintegrates
Telophase I
Nuclear membrane reforms cytoplasm divides 2 daughter cells are formed
what is a segment of dna that codes for a protein
