5639325849 | Prophase One | * Chromosomes condense * Paired homologous chromosomes become connected along their lengths by a protein structure called synaptonemal complex * Crossing over occurs * Synapsis ends * Each pair has one or more X-shaped regions called chiasmata * Nuclear envelope breaks down * Microtubules attach to the kinetochores Homologous pairs move towards the metaphase plate | ![]() | 0 |
5639325850 | Metaphase One | * Pairs of homologous chromosomes are lined at the metaphase plate * Both chromatids are attached to the kinetochore microtubules | ![]() | 1 |
5639325851 | Anaphase One | * Breakdown of proteins allow chromosomes to separate * The homologous chromosomes move towards opposite poles | ![]() | 2 |
5639325852 | Telophase and Cytokinesis One | * Completion of the duplication of chromosomes. Cytokinesis is happening simultaneously, forming tow daughter haploid cells * Nuclear envelope forms | ![]() | 3 |

Need Notes?
While we strive to provide the most comprehensive notes for as many high school textbooks as possible, there are certainly going to be some that we miss. Drop us a note and let us know which textbooks you need. Be sure to include which edition of the textbook you are using! If we see enough demand, we'll do whatever we can to get those notes up on the site for you!
