Meiosis

Makes gametes

involved in making new cells

Goes through a stage called PMAT X2

Telophase 1

Prophase 1

Metaphase 1

Prophase 2

Metaphase 2

Anaphase 2

Telophase 2

Chromosomes are condensing and are with their homologous pairs

Chromosomes align in the middle of the cell (in pairs)

Chromosomes are condensing

Anaphase 1

Chromosomes are pulled away by the spindles

New nuclei form and the two cells split

Chromosomes are in the middle but in a single file (not in pairs)

Chromatids get pulled away by the spindles

New nuclei form and the cells split

We end up with 4 non identical cells
