I always remember it as pro-meat - pro, meta, ana, telo.

Yeah, there's no point doing the hard stuff till you understand how it works.

Thanks for that it will help me to remember meiosis. I always keep mixing the stages up. But you missed Interphase.

Rep for you too.

Isn't interphase the bit between telo and pro? With the S1 and G and S2? This is really sad, I did an exam on this less than a year ago and I can't remember...
Its Prophase I, metaphase I anaphase I, telophase I then cytokinesis (or interphase)

Then it starts again, prophase II, metaphase II

The second phase is exactly like mitosis. Irs the first phase that is different. During late prophase I, 'Crossing Over' where polypeptides from both the maternal and the paturnal genes cross over to carry different genetic information

Firstly it is mid Prophase I were "crossing over" occurs, not late

Secondly polypeptides and DNA are two completely different things, to say that polypeptides "cross over" is just plain wrong

Thirdly it is not just genes that are exchanged, non-coding DNA is recombined too

There.

thanks i printed it off

Ok thanks for the corrections :smile:
I remember it by IPMAT - first letter of each word :smile:
meiosis has two stages meiosis 1 and 2

meiosis 1 is about the separation of the homologous chromosomes that includes prophase 1, metaphase 1, anaphase 1 and teleophase 1

while meiosis 2 is about the separation of the homologous chromosomes that includes the stages prophase 2, metaphase 2, anaphase 2 and telophase 2

good luck
