Hank explains the four phases of meiosis 1: prophase 1, metaphase 1, anaphase 1, and telophase 1. He accompanies his explanations with visualizations that illustrate each phase.

Hank explains that the process of meiosis 2 is exactly the same as mitosis, though the goal is different: instead of duplicating the double chromosomes, meiosis 2 pulls them apart into separate, single-strand chromosomes. Like meiosis 1, meiosis 2 has four phases: prophase 2, metaphase 2, anaphase 2, and telophase 2.

Mitosis is a key function in your body that constantly remediates cuts, repairs cells and accomodates growth.   Key Words: Mitosis, Chromosomes, Diploid Cells, Haploid Cells, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Centrosome Duplication, Chromatid, Centromere, Interphase 

Hank introduces meiosis, a special type of cell division that is necessary for sexual reproduction. He compares and contrasts it with mitosis, as the processes are similar.

Hank explains the first two phases of mitosis: Prophase and Metaphase.
