Question

whats the difference between meiosis one and two??

Answer 1

Meiosis 1: the result is 2 different cells with diploid (or duplicated haploids) chromosomes.
Meiosis 2 : the result is 4 different haploid cells

Before any Meiosis occurs, centromeres in the cell holds double-stranded chromosomes together. So, there are two double-stranded chromosomes.

In Meiosis I, the cell undergoes prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and finally telephase, resulting in the cell dividing into two, each with one double-stranded chromosome.

Meiosis II is the second division of Meiosis I, which splits the cell once again. This results in four cells with one-stranded chromosomes.

Hope this helps......
