What Is Meiosis?
7. Metaphase II
Next, we have the metaphase II stage of the meiosis process. Here, the existing x-shaped chromosome structures will line up at the cells equator.
In addition, the centrioles will line up at opposite poles of each of the cells, as was the case in the prophase I stage we described earlier. As mentioned, the meiotic spindle has formed again, and the spindles fibers will attach firmly to each of the chromosome structures in the same manner that they did in the metaphase I stage. This helps to prepare each of the structures for the next stage of the meiosis process.
