A cell cycle process comprising the steps by which a cell progresses through metaphase, the second stage of chromosome segregation in the cell cycle. Canonically, chromosomes become aligned on the equatorial plate of the cell. A cell cycle process comprising the steps by which a cell progresses through metaphase of meiosis II; analogous to mitotic metaphase. Progression through metaphase, the stage of mitosis at which chromosomes are firmly attached to the mitotic spindle at its equator but have not yet segregated to opposite poles. A cellular process that is involved in the progression of biochemical and morphological phases and events that occur in a cell during successive cell replication or nuclear replication events. A cell cycle process comprising the steps by which a cell progresses through one of the biochemical and morphological phases and events that occur during successive cell replication or nuclear replication events. A cell cycle process comprising the steps by which a cell progresses through metaphase of meiosis I; analogous to mitotic metaphase. A cell cycle process comprising the steps by which a cell progresses through M phase, the part of the cell cycle comprising nuclear division.
