Hank explains that the process of meiosis 2 is exactly the same as mitosis, though the goal is different: instead of duplicating the double chromosomes, meiosis 2 pulls them apart into separate, single-strand chromosomes. Like meiosis 1, meiosis 2 has four phases: prophase 2, metaphase 2, anaphase 2, and telophase 2.

Hank explains the four phases of meiosis 1: prophase 1, metaphase 1, anaphase 1, and telophase 1. He accompanies his explanations with visualizations that illustrate each phase.
Hank explains the last two phases of mitosis - Anaphase and Telophase.
Hank introduces meiosis, a special type of cell division that is necessary for sexual reproduction. He compares and contrasts it with mitosis, as the processes are similar.
Beakman explains how leaves lose chlorophyll using a cartoon video. Then he explains the role of chlorophlyll in photosynthesis verbally. To further demonstrate, Beakman acts like the "chef" chlorophyll that provides food for the plant.
Hank explains in-depth the series of reactions that take place for a plant to produce food for itself, also known as photosynthesis. This video also explores the prerequisites (sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water) of these reactions.
