Metaphase II

A phase of meiosis II where the chromosomes align at the metaphase plate, similar to metaphase in mitosis, but this process occurs in a haploid set of chromosomes.

Meiosis

Process in which a 2n cell undergoes two successive nuclear divisions (meiosis I and meiosis II), potentially producing four n nuclei; leads to the formation of gametes in animals and spores in plants.

Prophase II
