| Metaphase 1 | Pairs of homologous chromosomes move to the equator of the cell. |
| Ananphase 1 | Homologous chromosomes move to the opposite poles of the cells. |
| Telophase1 and Cytokinesis | Chromosomes gather at the poles of the cells. The cytoplasm divides. |
| Prophase 2 | A new spindle forms around the chromosomes. |
| Metaphase 2 | Chromosomes line up at the equator. |
| Anaphase 2 | Centromeres divides. Chromatids move to opposite poles of the cells. |
