Explanation:

In meiosis, metaphase is not the second step. Meiosis has two rounds (meiosis I and meiosis II), and each has its own prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Telophase is the last phase of mitosis, anaphase is the third phase of mitosis, and metaphase is recognizable by the alignment of chromosomes at the cell - equator.

Metaphase is the second step of meiosis
