Detailed explanation-1: -Prophase I of Meiosis Prophase I is the first stage of Meiosis I. Prophase I is further divided into Leptotene, Zygotene, Pachytene, Diplotene, and Diakinesis. These subdivisions can easily be remembered by using the mnemonic: Lazy Zebra Push Dumb Donkey.
Detailed explanation-2: -Stages of mitosis: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase. Cytokinesis typically overlaps with anaphase and/or telophase. You can remember the order of the phases with the famous mnemonic: [Please] Pee on the MAT.
