telophaseI, the last stage of meiosis I. Intelophase I, the ducks finally reach the pole.
Are you saying there are two divisions of meiosis?
Wait, are you saying there are two divisions of meiosis?
Next comes telophaseI, the last stage of meiosis I. Intelophase I, the ducks finally reach the pole. Yes, ! You are correct. There are two divisions of meiosis: meiosis I and meiosis II.
Wait, why are there two divisions and not one?
You will see at the result of cytokinesis, which is the division of the cytoplasm.

the original cell is being divided into two identical cells by cytokinesis.

But look closely! The evo-ducks are still duplicated.

Oh, yeah! That makes sense. That's where meiosis II comes in!
MEIOSIS II
Meiosis II has the same phases as meiosis I.
This process is prophase II. A new mitotic spindle is forming.
