Animator 1: Good morning ,I'm (name )

Animator 2: I'm (name)


Animator 1:Today we're going to discuss the stages of meiosis.
(Transition to prophase 1)
Animator 2:First stage is prophase 1 ,the DNA coils tightly and individual
chromosomes become visible under the light microscope . Homologous
chromosomes become closely associated in synapses and they exchange
segments by crossing over.
(Transition to metaphase 1)
Animator 1:In metaphase 1 ,the nuclear membrane has disappeared and the
microtubules form a spindle .Spindle fibers attached to only one side of each
centromere and the two homologous chromosomes attached to microtubules
orienting from opposite poles each pair of homologs then lines up on the metaphase
plate either maternal or paternal homolog may orient toward a given pole .
(Transition to anaphase 1)
Animator 2: In anaphase 1,the microtubules of the spindle fiber shorten and pull the
chromosomes towards the pole taking both sister chromatids with them .Each pole
ends up with a complete haploid set of chromosomes consisting of one member of
the homologous pair.
(Transition to telophase 1)
Animator 1: During telophase 1 ,the nuclear membrane reforms around the daughter
nuclei .Each daughter nucleus contains two sister chromatids for each chromosome
attached to a common centromere, because of crossing over the two sister
chromatids are not Identical .
(Transition to prophase 2)
Animator 2: During prophase 2 ,the nuclear envelope breaks down and a new spindle
forms .
(Transition to metaphase 2)
Animator 2: In metaphase 2 ,spindle fibers bind to both sides of the centromere .
(Transition to anaphase 2)
Animator 1 :During anaphase 2 ,the spindle fibers contract and sister chromatids
move toward opposite poles .
(Transition to telophase 2)
Animator 1 :In telophase 2 , The nuclear envelopes reform around the sets of
daughter chromosomes and that's all for all the stages of meiosis.
Animator 2 : Thank you for watching !Hope you learned something from today's
video ,until next time.
Animator 1 and 2 : byeee yawaaaa (wave hands)
