Solution
The correct option is B Chromomeres
A chromomere is one of the serially aligned beads or granules of a eukaryotic chromosome, resulting from local coiling of a continuous DNA thread. It is visible on a chromosome during the prophase of meiosis and mitosis. The chromomeres are present during leptotene phase of prophase I during meiosis. During zygotene phase of prophase I, the chromomeres of homologs align with each other to form a homologous rough pairing. These chromomeres help provide a unique identity for each homologous pairs.So, the correct answer is option A.
