The secondary oocyte is the cell that is formed by meiosis I in oogenesis.

As a result of meiosis I, the primary oocyte has now developed into the secondary oocyte and the first polar body.

This process occurs in two phases, meiosis I and meiosis II.

Interphase is followed by meiosis I and then meiosis II.

The extra X chromosome is retained because of a nondisjunction event during meiosis I (gametogenesis).

Interkinesis or interphase II is a period of rest that cells of some species enter during meiosis, between meiosis I and meiosis II.

Proteasomes translocated to meiotic spindles of rat oocytes and MG-132 induced-inhibition of proteasomal activity resulted in partial segregation of chromosomes during meiosis I [ 42 ] .

In meiosis I (MI) homologous chromosomes segregate from their partners in a reductional division, and during meiosis II (MII) sister chromatids segregate from one-another in an equational division similar to mitosis.

Meiosis is divided into meiosis I and meiosis II which are further divided into Karyokinesis I and Cytokinesis I & Karyokinesis II and Cytokinesis II respectively.

Results Transient exposure of mouse oocytes to MG-132 for 6 h followed by washout of the compound and an additional 17 h culture in vitro enabled exposure of cells during meiosis I and sufficient time for them to progress to metaphase II.

Therefore, meiosis includes the stages of meiosis I (prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I, telophase I), and meiosis II (prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II, telophase II).

The risk of getting a problem during meiosis increases when women have babies later in life.

Two things happen during meiosis, each of which makes the offspring more variable.

During meiosis the number is reduced to one set of chromosomes.

They have undergone a process of cell division called meiosis.

Meiosis is now complete and ends up with four new daughter cells.

Meiosis, too, is a physical process, and it can be influenced by genes.

What is it specifically about stress that needs to be overcome by meiosis?

The table below shows the differences between meiosis and mitosis.

Meiosis involves two rounds of nuclear division, not just one.

Its high conservation suggests that it plays a primary role in meiosis.

The gametes go through a different division method called meiosis.

For that reason, meiosis is often called reduction division.

During meiosis the chromosomes line up across from each other and are separated into different cells.

The study of meiosis is simplified considerably with this organism.

When gametes are produced by meiosis, the two factors separate.

During meiosis, there are two cell division steps that together produce the four daughter cells.

They were also able to show that about half of the chromosomes typically paired for meiosis.

Furthermore, reproduction by meiosis is possible in both phases of the life cycle.

One theory on how meiosis arose is that it evolved from transformation.

In order to understand meiosis, a comparison to mitosis is helpful.

Meiosis is a key stage of the sexual cycle in eukaryotes.

The egg cells may be produced either by meiosis or mitosis.

Mitosis and meiosis are sometimes called the two "nuclear division" processes.
