Meiosis

G1

Growth of the cell, in terms of size and cytoplasm.

S 1

Synthesis of the DNA so there are 2 sets within the cell ready for the two new cells.

G2

Even more growth of the cell.

Prophase 1

• Nuclear envelope starts to break down.
• Chromosomes start to condense.
• Centrioles form spindle fibres which attach to the centimeres of the chromosomes.

Metaphase 1

• Chomosomes line up in the middle of the cell.
• Centrioles migrate to the poles.

Anaphase 1

• The Chromosomes are ripped apart at the middle, into two chromotids and the spindle fibres contract
• .The chromotids end up and the poles and spindle fibres break down.

Telephase 1

• The…
