Meiosis 1 refers to the initial stage of meiosis where one parent celldivides into two daughtercells. This stage is where homologous pairs of chromosomes will segregate and separate from each other and move into the two daughter cells which result in the division of the total chromosomal number by half.
<h3>What happens during Meiosis 1 ?</h3>
Meiosis I ends when the chromosomes of each homologous pair arrive at opposing poles of the cell.
The microtubules disintegrate, and a new nuclear membrane forms around each haploid set of chromosomes.
The chromosomes uncoil, forming chromatin again, and cytokinesis occurs, forming two non-identical daughter cells.
Water provides a safety net for mosquitoes to move into developmental periods and grow. In the egg stage, the female lays roughly 300 eggs that float atop the water's surface. This is why it is so important to eliminate any standing water around your property.
