The meiotic spindle fibres attach to one chromosome of each pair.

The centrioles are now at opposites poles of the cell with the meiotic spindles extending from them.

The chromosome pairs line up next to each other along the centre (equator) of the cell.

The meiotic spindle, consisting of microtubules and other proteins, extends across the cell between the centrioles.

At the end of Prophase I the membrane around the nucleus in the cell dissolves away, releasing the chromosomes.

The pairs of chromosomes may then exchange bits of DNA in a process called recombination or crossing over.

The chromosomes pair up so that both copies of chromosome 1 are together, both copies of chromosome 2 are together, and so on.

Each chromosome is composed of two sister chromatids containing identical genetic information.

The copied chromosomes condense into X-shaped structures that can be easily seen under a microscope.

During interphase, microtubules extend from these centrosomes.

Outside of the nucleus are two centrosomes, each containing a pair of centrioles, these structures are critical for the process of cell division.

The DNA in the cell is copied resulting in two identical full sets of chromosomes.These are divided between the first time the cell divides (meiosis I) and the second time it divides (meiosis II): Meiosis I Meiosis produces our sex cells or gametes (eggs in females and sperm in males).These four daughter cells only have half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell – they are haploid.During meiosis one cell divides twice to form four daughter cells.The cell has divided, and the two identical cells are now ready to begin their first period of growth. The changes now taking place are the reverse of those that occurred during prophase: the chromosomes uncoil, new membranes form around the nuclei, and the fibers of the spindle disappear. In the last phase-telophase-the cell divides. In this way a complete set of chromosomes migrates toward each centriole. Once the chromatids separate, they are called chromosomes. As the third phase-anaphase-begins, the chromatids separate and move to opposite ends of the cell. The second phase of mitosis is metaphase, in which the chromosomes move into the equatorial plane of the spindle. Many of these from one centriole join with strands from the other to form the spindle. From the centrioles, long, thin strands extend in all directions.

The long, threadlike material of the nucleus coils up into visible chromosomes, and the nuclear membrane disappears. In the first phase-prophase-a centriole, located outside the nucleus, divides. The process of mitosis is continuous, but it is possible to identify four general phases, each characterized by specific activity.
