| A | B |
| homologous chromosomes pair up and form tetrad | prophase 1 |
| spindle fibers move homologous chromosomes to opposite poles | anaphase 1 |
| nuclear membrane reforms, cytoplasm divides, 4 daughter cells formed | telophase & cytokinesis 2 |
| chromosomes line up along equator, not in homologous pairs | metaphase 2 |
| crossing over occurs | prophase 1 |
| sister chromatids separate | anaphase 2 |
| homologous chromosomes line up at equator | metaphase 1 |
| 2 daughter nuclei are formed | telophase 1 |
| 2 cells with 1 homolog and its sisterchromatid | end of meiosis 1 |
| 4 haploid cells formed | end of meiosis 2 |
| reproductive cells formed after meiosis in females | eggs |
| reproductive cells formed after meiosis in males | sperm |
