Question

i) The $I^{st}$ & $I{I}^{nd}$ meiotic divisions are unequal
ii) $I^{st}$ & $I{I}^{nd}$ polar bodies are tiny in structure
iii) ootid is haploid in condition
The correct combination is

• A. Only i & ii
• B. Only ii & iii
• C. Only ii
• D. All

Answer 1

The correct option is D All

The process of meiosis consists of 2 divisions, first meiotic division and second meiotic division. The first meiotic division separates homologous chromosomes to halve the chromosome number. It is a reductional division. The second meiotic division separates the sister chromatids. It is an equational division. At the end of first meiotic division, first polar body is formed. At the end of second meiotic division, second polar body is formed. These polar bodies are tiny in structure. These polar bodies eventually die. At the end of meiosis II, ootid is formed which is haploid in condition.

Thus, the correct answer is 'All.'
