=== Prophase II === Prophase II of [[meiosis]] is very similar to prophase of [[mitosis]]. The most noticeable difference is that prophase II occurs with a [[Ploidy|haploid]] number of [[chromosome]]s as opposed to the [[Ploidy|diploid]] number in mitotic prophase.<ref name=":3" /><ref name=":1" /> In both [[Cell (biology)|animal]] and [[plant cell]]s chromosomes may de-condense during [[telophase]] I requiring them to re-condense in prophase II.<ref name=":2" />{{rp|100}}<ref name=":1" /> If chromosomes do not need to re-condense, prophase II often proceeds very quickly as is seen in the [[model organism]] [[Arabidopsis]].<ref name=":1" />
