phases of meiosis II Flashcards
1
Q
prophase II
A
a new spindle apparatus forms, a spindle fiber attaches to each chromosome, and chromosomes begin to move toward the metaphase plate.
2
Q
metaphase II
A
chromosomes are lined up at the metaphase plate.
3
Q
anaphase II
A
sister chromatids separate to form individual chromosomes; spindle fibers pull the chromosomes toward opposite poles of the cell.
4
Q
telophase II
A
chromosomes finish migrating to opposite poles of the cell and nuclear envelopes form.
5
Q
cytokinesis
A
once meiosis II is complete, the cell divides along its midline to form two daughter cells, resulting in a total of four daughter cells from the original single cell.
