What is the purpose of meiosis?
To create gametes
The third phase of Meiosis I
Homologous chromosomes move away from each other.
What is Anaphase I?
The first phase of Meiosis II
What is Prophase II?
The process in Meiosis that ensures more genetic variation
What is crossing over?
The three phases of Interphase.
What are G1, S, and G2?

The fifth phase of Meiosis I
What is Telophase I & Cytokinesis
The second phase of Meiosis II
What is Metaphase II?
The phase of meiosis where crossing over occurs
What is Prophase?

2
The third phase of Meiosis I
What is Metaphase I?
This is the final step to make new gametes.
Cytokinesis
This is placed after the name of each phase to indicate the cycle (or section of Meiosis) that it is in
What is a roman numeral?
The phase in interphase where DNA is replicated
What is S phase?
This phenomenon during meiosis ensures that offspring inherit a random combination of maternal and paternal chromosomes, significantly contributing to genetic diversity
Independent assortment
