    Question

    After which phase in the cell cycle and DNA replication, meiosis begins?

    1. Interphase

    2. Cytokinesis

    3. G1phase

    4. G2 phase

    Hint:

    This is the first stage of meiosis I.

    The correct answer is:

    Interphase

      • Meiosis involves not only one fission but two.
      • Despite this fact, many of the other events in meiosis are similar to those occurring in mitosis.
      • For example, before meiosis, cells go through an intermediate stage to grow, replicate chromosomes, and check all systems to ensure they are ready for division.
