Question

prophase ii

• the chromosomes pair up in prophase ii.
• the nucleus (goes away) just like in prophase i.

Explanation:

In Prophase II of meiosis, homologous chromosomes do not pair up (synapsis occurs in Prophase I). The nuclear envelope breaks down (goes away) similar to Prophase I.

Answer:

The first blank should be filled with "do not" (since chromosomes do not pair up in Prophase II) and the second blank should be filled with "breaks down".
