Prophase II
daughter cells from Meiosis I

At the end of meiosis I, chromosomes
in each daughter cell decondense back
into chromatin and a nuclear envelope
completely reforms around the genetic
material. Then meiosis II begins.

Prophase II

The nuclear membrane disintegrates,
chromatin condenses to form
chromosomes and spindle fibers
form.

Chromosomes, composed of two
chromatids, move to the middle of
the cell.
