it starts out with interphase, which is where the cell grows, reproduces it genome into two sister chromatids, which attach into tetrads (4 connected chromosomes, two sets of each) and gets ready for meiosis. Meiosis is when the nucleus actually break aparts and it starts with prophase, where the mitotic spindle (think of it as a pulley) starts to form, the nucleus breaks up. In metaphase, the mitotic spindle (made of microfilaments or long spaghetti like proteins) is complete, attached to kinetochores in the centromeres (the attach places of the sister chromatids) or other microfilaments. The spindle then starts to push on other microfilaments in anaphase, elongating the cell and breaking apart the tetrads, sending one sister chromatid to each side. . Telophase is when the new nuclei reform and gets ready to prepare mitosis to make sex cells. Cytokinesis, not part of meiosis but definitely related is when the two cells seperate due to a groove that eventually splits the cell into two. The groove is made by microfilaments tightening like a thread around the middle of the cell. Then the two cells undergo mitosis, splitting the two sister chromatids into four haploid cells. The first part is called meiosis 1 and the second is meiosis 2 (the mitosis part)

i found this on Yahoo answers. thanks alex H.!
the process of meiosis has 9 steps
1 prophase 1
2 metaphase 1
3 anaphase 1
4 telophase1
5 prophase 11
6 metaphase 11
7 anaphase 11
8 telophase 11
9 four cells
prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I, telophase I, prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II, telophase II
* * * == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == == ==
prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I, and then telophase I. This depends on the book or the professor though, some include early and late phases.
prophase metaphase anaphase telophase
All steps of meiosis II are similar to the steps of Mitosis
meiosis is where sex cells are made -there are 8 steps in meiosis mitosis is where the nucleus divides -there are 4 steps in mitosis they both make chromosomes
The main steps in the diploid life cycle are: meiosis, to gametes, to fertilization, to zygote, to diploid individuals, to a reproductive cellIf you are mainly concentrating on the steps I guess you could say Meiosis and Fertilization.
Meiosis and Mitosis both use centrioles, they both have the same process(except for a few other steps in Meiosis) and they both split cells.
The interphase is the same for mitosis and meiosis. Just mitosis only has one telophase step (where the cells separate), while meiosis has two telophase steps. In both Mitosis and Meiosis, the cell only replicates it's DNA once.
All steps of meiosis II are similar to the steps of Mitosis
If you mean meiosis I and meiosis II, then no they are not identical, but meiosis II does follow meiosis I.
The steps in the diploid life cycle are meiosis, to gametes, to fertilization, to diploid, to reproductive cell. The main steps are Meiosis and Fertilization.
Meiosis . ;)

YES

They have many similar steps they both have a prophase and an anaphase
