Stages of Meiosis Interphase: The cell is going about its normal activities, and at the end, prepares for meiosis. To prepare for meiosis the cells: __________________________ chromosomes to make sister chromatids. The main features of interphase were the same as in mitosis: ____________, _______________________, and _________ replication to make sister chromatids. Meiosis I Prophase I condense and become visible. Homologous ________________________ chromosomes pair up. occurs. __________________________________ _____________ form between centrioles. Nuclear membrane dissolves. Metaphase I Homologous chromosomes line up in the ________________ of in pairs the cell. Each spindle fiber attaches to in a pair of homologous chromosomes. both Anaphase I Spindles pull the towards opposite homologous ____________________ ends of the cell. This is an important difference from mitosis! Telophase I Each pair of homologous chromosomes is now at the ___________ side of the cell. Nuclear membranes ______________. ____________ dissolve. ____________________: The cell membrane pinches off to form two cells.
