• Prophase I takes much longer
• Involves recombination/crossing over of chromosomes in prophase I

• During anaphase II the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles.
SIMILARITIES
• Diploid parent cell
• Consists of interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase (but twice!)
• In metaphase II individual chromosomes (pairs of chromatids) line up along the
equator.
• During anaphase II the sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles.
• Ends with cytokinesis.
