metaphase ii | chromes align on equator |
anaphase ii | centromeres divide; now single strands of chromes |
telophase ii | new nuclear envelopes form; now have four haploid cells |
destined to become sperm | primordial germ cells |
lie along periphery of seminiferous tubule, multiply by mitosis | spermatogenia |
