If you mean the first definition then the stages are inerphase, prophase , metaphase I, anaphase I, telophase I, and cytokinesis, then the second round is prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II, telophse II, and cytokinesis II.
If you mean the second definition then it is the same but without the interphase and cytokinesis.

The major differences are in prophase one where pairing up and crossing over take place.
Pairing up means each paternal chromosome comes near the homologous maternal one to make a pair.
Crossing over means one sister chromatid from one chromosome of the pair is connected to the non sister chromatid from the other, the two pieces are cut, then exchanged.

There are two different forms of cell division- mitosis and meiosis. Why do we need two forms? Do all cells use both forms? Why do you think that this is true? What are the advantages and disadvantages of each form of cell division?

Which kind of cell can divide by mitosis, a germ cell or a somatic cell? What kind can undergo meiosis?

Mitosis is for growth and repair. One cell becomes two daughter cells with each containing 46 chromosomes and retains the exact feature of that cell. Meiosis is for reproductive cells....

Which of these correctly distinguishes mitosis from meiosis? A) Mitosis occurs in germ cells and meiosis occurs in somatic cells. B) Crossing over takes place in mitosis and not in meiotic cell division. C) Meiosis produces four 2N daughter cells; mitos

Recall that somatic cells are body cells excluding the reproductive cells. For example, this includes cells of the liver, skin, stomach, but not of sperm or the human egg. In...

For down syndrome, at which stages of meiosis 1 and 2 could a mistake occur that could result in the altered chromosome number?

Down Syndrome (or Trisomy 21) is caused by an nondisjunction, which would cause the individual to have 47 chromosomes. This occurs at anaphase since that is when the chromosome pairs...
