Meiosis' two main effects are the fact that it keeps the number of chromosones from doubling each generation, and it provides genetic diversity in offspring. The Phases of Meiosis go like this: Interphase, prophase 1, metaphase 1, anaphase 1, telophase 1, prophase 2, metaphase 2, anaphase 2, and telophase 2. When this process ends the result is four daughter cells.

the sister chromatids separate
Meiosis is a type of cell division that results in the formation of gametes (sperm and egg cells). It involves two rounds of division (meiosis I and meiosis II) that result in four daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Key events include crossing over, independent assortment, and random segregation of chromosomes to create genetic diversity.
Meiosis is a special type of cellular division because it results in cells which have half the number of chromosomes as the original cell. Meiosis produces 4 gametes (sex-cells) from one original cell. These gametes are involved in sexual reproduction.
The chromosomes in haploid cells produced by meiosis I look different from those produced by meiosis II primarily due to genetic recombination and the reduction of chromosome number. During meiosis I, homologous chromosomes are separated and can undergo crossing over, resulting in genetic variation. In contrast, meiosis II resembles mitosis, where sister chromatids are separated, leading to the production of haploid cells that contain single chromatids. Thus, the genetic makeup of the cells differs due to the events of meiosis I.
If you mean meiosis I and meiosis II, then no they are not identical, but meiosis II does follow meiosis I.
Telophase occur in both mitosis and meiosis. During telophase nuclear membrane and nuclei reforms and in meiosis it further goes for meiosis 2 which is same as mitosis

There is only one interphase, and it's the same as other cells: to grow, function, and replicate DNA. Meiosis is only a small part of cell cycle and interphase is not included in it. There are, however, two different phases in meiosis, such as prophase I and prophase II.
the sister chromatids separate
The three major differences between the events of mitosis and meiosis are: Mitosis results in two identical daughter cells, while meiosis results in four genetically diverse daughter cells. Mitosis involves one round of cell division, while meiosis involves two rounds of cell division. Mitosis is involved in growth, repair, and asexual reproduction, while meiosis is involved in sexual reproduction and creates gametes with half the number of chromosomes.
Crossing over is important in meiosis because it promotes genetic diversity by shuffling genetic material between homologous chromosomes. This process leads to the creation of new combinations of alleles, increasing variation among offspring. Additionally, crossing over helps to ensure the proper separation of homologous chromosomes during the later stages of meiosis.
Both processes begin with similar events, including chromosome replication.
