♻Meiosis consists of two divisions, both of which follow the same stages as mitosis (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase)
↪Meiosis is preceded by interphase, in which DNA is replicated to produce chromosomes consisting of two sister chromatids
A second growth phase called interkinesis may occur between meiosis I and II, however no DNA replication occurs in this stage
☸Meiosis I
➡The first meiotic division is a reduction division (diploid → haploid) in which homologous chromosomes are separated
➡P-I: Chromosomes condense, nuclear membrane dissolves, homologous chromosomes form bivalents, crossing over occurs
➡M-I: Spindle fibres from opposing centrosomes connect to bivalents (at centromeres) and align them along the middle of the cell
➡A-I: Spindle fibres contract and split the bivalent, homologous chromosomes move to opposite poles of the cell
➡T-I: Chromosomes decondense, nuclear membrane may reform, cell divides (cytokinesis) to form two haploid daughter cells
↔Meiosis II
➡The second division separates sister chromatids (these chromatids may not be identical due to crossing over in prophase I)
➡P-II: Chromosomes condense, nuclear membrane dissolves, centrosomes move to opposite poles (perpendicular to before)
➡M-II: Spindle fibres from opposing centrosomes attach to chromosomes (at centromere) and align them along the cell equator
➡A-II: Spindle fibres contract and separate the sister chromatids, chromatids (now called chromosomes) move to opposite poles
➡T-II: Chromosomes decondense, nuclear membrane reforms, cells divide (cytokinesis) to form four haploid daughter cells
➡The final outcome of meiosis is the production of four haploid daughter cells
↪These cells may all be genetically distinct if crossing over occurs in prophase I (causes recombination of sister chromatids)

Answer:
Explanation:
Since cell division occurs twice during meiosis, one starting cell can produce four gametes (eggs or sperm). In each round of division, cells go through four stages: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
