Chromosomes replicate
Interphase 1
Centriole pairs also replicate
Interphase 1
Each duplicated chromosome consist of two identical sister chromatids attached at their centromeres
Interphase 1
Nucleus and nucleolus visible
Interphase 1
Cell division that reduce the chromosome number by one half
Meiosis 1
Longest and most complex phase (90%)
Prophase 1
Chromosomes condense
Propase 1
Sypnasis occurs: homologous chromosomes come together to form TETRAD
Prophase 1
homologous chromosomes come together to form?
Tetrad
Two chromosomes or four chromatids (sister and non sister chromatids)
