 1) How many successive divisions are there in stages of Meiosis?
There are 2 successive divisions in Meiosis, these are Meiosis I and Meiosis II. In
Meiosis I, the first meiotic division results in reducing the number of chromosomes

IV. (reduction division). In most cases, the division is accompanied by cytokinesis.

Meiosis I includes 4 stages- Prophase I, Metaphase I, Anaphase I, and Telophase I.
Meiosis II, on the other hand, the events in the second meiotic division are quite
similar to a mitotic division. the difference lies, however, in the number of

ACTIVITY/EXERCISES:
chromosomes that each daughter cell receives. While the original chromosome
number is maintained in mitosis, the number is reduced to half in meiosis. There
are also four stages here in Meiosis II- Prophase II, Metaphase II, Anaphase II, and
Directions: Answer the

Telophase II.
2) What are the two important events that happen during Prophase I?

following briefly. Write

During prophase I, the chromosomes condense and become visible inside the
nucleus. Homologous chromosomes pair and form synapsis.
3) What do you call chromosomes when synapsis occurs?
your answer in your Synapsis is the process of chromosomes pairing together, and the paired
chromosomes are called homologous chromosomes. When the homologous

answer sheet. chromosomes came close together and align side by side, these chromosomes are
now called bivalent or tetrad.
4) How many haploid cells are produced?
There are four (4) haploid daughter cells that go on to develop into either sperm
or egg cells.
 1) Which structure is not part of the endomembrane system?
a. nuclear envelope c. Golgi apparatus
b. chloroplast d. plasma membrane

proteins?
a. Blood c. Cartilage
b. Bone d. Connective Tissue

a. Esophagus c. Kidney

b. III, II, I d. II, III, I
12) What stage of the cell cycle is the process of cellular reproduction that occurs in the nucleus and forms two identical
nuclei?
a. Cell Cycle c. Meiosis

V.
b. Cytokinesis d. Mitosis
13) How many daughter cells are produced in the cell division of mitosis?
a. Four c. Three
b. One d. Two
