How do meiosis 1 differ from those of meiosis 2?

Anaphase of Meiosis 1 separates the homologous chromosome pairs, but during Anaphase of Meiosis 2, the sister chromatids are separated instead. Also, Meiosis 1 starts with one diploid cell and ends with 2 haploid cells, whereas Meiosis 2 starts with the 2 haploid cells and ends with 4 haploid cells (gametes).

How many divisions occur in meiosis?

Meiosis does in fact divide twice, once in meiosis I (cytokinesis) and meiosis II (cytokinesis) basically it divides into four daughter cells at the end of meiosis. Two from meiosis I and four in meiosis II


Does the nucleus divide in meiosis 1 and again in meiosis 2?

No, the nucleus does not divide in meiosis 1 and then again in meiosis 2. In meiosis 1, the nucleus divides once to reduce the chromosome number in the cell, resulting in two daughter cells. In meiosis 2, the two daughter cells from meiosis 1 divide again to form a total of four haploid daughter cells.


How does meiosis 1 differ from mitosis in terms of the process of cell division?

In meiosis 1, the cell divides twice to produce four daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes, while in mitosis, the cell divides once to produce two daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
