Prophase Two
Prophase II is a stage of cell division in meiosis that involves the condensation of chromosomes
Chromosome condensation is the process of compacting long chromatin strands into short, thread-like chromosomes
and the breakdown of the nuclear envelope
The nuclear envelope's main function is to protect the nucleus and control the exchange of materials between the nucleus and the cytoplasm
Chromosomes condense: Chromosomes condense into visible X-shaped structures
Nuclear membrane dissolves: The nuclear membrane breaks down, allowing the chromosomes to become visible
Spindle fibers form: Centrioles migrate to opposite ends of the cell and begin to form spindle fibers.
Chromosomes move: The chromosomes begin to move toward the equator of the cell.
Kinetochore proteins assemble: Kinetochore proteins assemble on the outer chromatids of each chromosome
Meiotic spindle attaches: The meiotic spindle attaches to the kinetochores.
