Prometaphase I

State

In prometaphase I, the nuclear envelope finishes fragmenting and each tetrad's two homologs attach to kinetochore microtubules from opposite spindle poles.

Show

One homolog of a tetrad captures microtubules from one pole while its partner captures microtubules from the opposite pole.

Watch for

Each homolog's two sister chromatids attach to the same pole here — only whole homologs attach to opposite poles.
