Solution

The correct option is D Is often absent since Meiosis II begins right after Meiosis I.
Interkinesis phase is often absent in Meiosis because the initial stages of the next phase, that is Meiosis II, start right after Meiosis I end therefore leaving no scope for an interkinesis phase to occur.
