Questions: Which lists the steps of Meiosis II in the correct order? anaphase II, metaphase II, prophase II, telophase II prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II, telophase II anaphase II, telophase II, prophase II, metaphase II prophase II, telophase II, anaphase II, metaphase II

The answer is: prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II, telophase II.

Explanation:

• Prophase II: This is the first step of Meiosis II, where the chromosomes condense, and the nuclear envelope breaks down if it was reformed during telophase I. The spindle apparatus begins to form.
• Metaphase II: The chromosomes line up at the metaphase plate, similar to metaphase in mitosis.
• Anaphase II: The sister chromatids are pulled apart by the spindle fibers and move toward opposite poles of the cell.
• Telophase II: The chromosomes arrive at the poles, and the nuclear envelope reforms around each set of chromosomes. This is followed by cytokinesis, resulting in four haploid daughter cells.

Each step follows the previous one in the order listed, making the sequence correct.
