ProfessorIn prophase I of meiosis, homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange genetic material in a process called crossing over. This creates genetic diversity. In prophase II of meiosis, the duplicated chromosomes from prophase I line up in the center of the cell and prepare to separate into individual chromosomes.

What is a similarity between meiosis 1 and meiosis 2?
one similarity is the chromosomes in both cells line up at the equator before they split, one difference is in meiosis2 the cells split from two cells into four, while in meiosis1 the singular stretches apart and splits to form two new daughter cells.
Number of cells during prophase?
During prophase of mitosis, the number of cells remains constant. Prophase is the first stage of mitosis where the nucleus condenses and the chromosomes become visible, but the cell itself does not divide yet.
What is the phase that two new nuclear envelopes form?
The phase where two new nuclear envelopes form around the two sets of daughter chromosomes is called telophase. In telophase, the nuclear membrane reforms around the chromosomes and the nucleoli reappear. This marks the end of nuclear division in cell mitosis.
What is the proper sequence of mitosis?
The proper sequence of mitosis is prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. During prophase, chromosomes condense and the nuclear envelope breaks down. Metaphase is when chromosomes line up at the center of the cell. Anaphase is when sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles, and telophase involves the formation of two new daughter nuclei.
What are the phases in Mitosis and Meiosis?
In mitosis, the phases are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. In meiosis, the phases are similar but with two rounds of division: prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I, telophase I, followed by prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II, and telophase II.
