Question :Describe the changes and various phase seen during Meiosis - II with diagram. |
|
Answer» Solution :Meiosis II takes place in four SUB phase. Meiosis II resembles a normal mitosis. The nuclear of chromosomes is maintained in its sub phase / stages : (i) Prophase - II (ii) Metaphase - II (iii) Anaphase - II (iv) TELOPHASE - II are seen. (i) Prophase-II: Meiosis-II is initiated immediately after cytokinesis. The nuclear membrane disappears by the end of prophase-II. The chromosomes again become compact. (ii) Metaphase - II : The chromosomes align at the equator and microtubules from opposite of the spindle get attached to the kinetochores of sister chromatids. (iii) Anaphase - II : It begins with the simultaneous SPLITTING of the centromere of each chromosome (which was HOLDING the sister chromatids TOGETHER) allowing them to move toward poles of the cell. (iv) Telophase - II : Meiosis ends with telophase - II, in which the two groups of chromosomes once again get enclosed by a nuclear envelope. Cytokinesis follows resulting in the formation of tetrad of cells i.e., four haploid daughter cells.
