Metaphase is the second stage of cell division. At the metaphase plate, sister chromatids are attached to the bundle of four to eight spindle fibers.
Metaphase is that phase that follows after prophase, when the chromatin condenses and become more visible (i.e. via the process of chromatin condensation). At metaphase, the condensed chromosomes align along the metaphase plate (equator) and the microtubules formed during prophase will attach to the kinetochores. In meiosis, metaphase occurs twice, i.e. metaphase I at first meiotic division and metaphase II at second meiotic division.
