In prophase one of meiosis the following steps happen so chromosomes begin to condense and the nuclear emvelopians to break down. In metaphase two the spindle fibers attached to chromosomes are pulled or pushed into to line up at again the metaphase plate this time though homologous pairs of chromosomes line up not just individual chromosomes.
