Question
**Distinguishing Meiosis I from Meiosis II**

**How do you know what is meiosis I and what is meiosis II?**

Here are some hints to help you determine how to identify if a cell is undergoing meiosis I or meiosis II.

- In prophase I and metaphase I, the chromosomes are found in their homologous pairs. In prophase II and metaphase II, there are single duplicated chromosomes.

- In anaphase I and telophase I, the chromosomes are duplicated (shaped like Xs). In anaphase II and telophase II, the chromosomes are not duplicated.

**Take a look at the picture, and then answer the questions**

*Diagram Description:*
The diagram depicts a cell with chromosomes aligned at the metaphase plate, attached to spindle fibers extending from opposite poles. The chromosomes are arranged in pairs, suggesting homologous pairing.

**In what phase of meiosis is this cell?**
- ○ metaphase I
- ○ prophase II
- ○ metaphase II
- ○ prophase I
