The chromatin of a diploid cell coils to form an X shape. The nucleus dissolves.

• Prophase I

• Prophase II

• Metaphase I

• Metaphase II

Homologous chromosomes line up at the center of the cell.

• Prophase I

• Prophase II

• Metaphase I

• Metaphase II

Homologous chromosomes are pulled apart by spindle fibers

• Metaphase I

• Metaphase II

• Anaphase I

• Anaphase II

Single chromosomes line up in the center of the cell.

• Metaphase I

• Metaphase II

• Anaphase I

• Anaphase II

Single chromosomes are separated into sister chromatids by spindle fibers.

• Metaphase I

• Metaphase II

• Anaphase I

• Anaphase II

Chromatids dissolve back into chromatin, and the nucleus reforms.

• Prophase I

• Prophase II

• Telophase I

• Telophase II

The cytoplasm forms a cleavage furrow and separates the cell.

• Prophase I

• Metaphase I

• Anaphase I

• Telophase I
