Some steps in cell division are shown below:

1. Haploid chromosomes condense

2. Number of chromosomes are reduced to half

3. Chromosomes move to the equatorial plane between the poles

4. Centromeres separate and the sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles by the spindle

Which of the following steps is most likely to occur during meiosis 2 only?

The haploid chromosomes would condense and chromosomes would move to the equatorial plane

1. Haploid chromosomes condense

3. Chromosomes move to the equatorial plane between the poles

4. Centromeres separate and the sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles by the spindle

Explanation:

Meiosis consists of two divisions namely meiosis I and Meiosis II. Meiosis I is reduction division and Meiosis II is equational division similar to mitosis. Following meiosis I, Haploid daughter cells are formed which enter meiosis II without passing going through interphase or DNA replication. Since meiosis II resembles a mitotic division, the steps are similar to mitosis. Therefore, in meiosis II, haploid daughter chromosomes condense, Chromosomes move to the equatorial plane between the poles and centromeres separate and the sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles by the spindle.
