    This document describes the stages of meiosis using playing cards as an analogy. It explains that during meiosis I, homologous chromosomes line up and separate, dividing the cell. During meiosis II, sister chromatids separate, dividing the cell again and resulting in four haploid daughter cells, each with a single set of chromosomes. Meiosis increases genetic variation by separating homologous chromosomes and sister chromatids in two cell divisions.

    Part 2
    Meiosis
    • Interphase/ Prophase I: Chromosomes
    duplicate
    Meiosis
    • Metaphase I: Homologous chromosomes
    center on metaphase plate
    Meiosis
    • Anaphase I: Chromosomes start to head to
    opposite poles but sister chromatids stay
    together
    Meiosis
    • Continued from previous slide

    • Telophase I/ Cytokinesis: Cells divide with


    haploid chromosomes (Chromosomes still
    have sister chromatids connected)
    Meiosis
    • Prophase II: Chromosomes move towards
    middle of cells
    Meiosis
    • Metaphase II: Chromosomes converge on
    metaphase plate of each individual cell with
    the sister chromatids still attached
    Meiosis
    • Anaphase II: Sister Chromatids separate and
    head towards opposite poles of cell. This can
    cause differences between all the cells,
    depending on which way the daughter
    chromosomes move.
    Meiosis
    • Anaphase II:
    Red cards separate
    with like
    chromosomes
    whereas white
    cards separate
    with differing
    chromosomes
    Meiosis
    • Telophase II and
    Cytokinesis: Cells
    separate and create
    four daughter cells
    that each have
    single chromosomes
    (haploid).
