Solution

The correct option is C 12
The right answer is 12 dyads. During Anaphase II, centromere splits, sister chromatids will seperate into seperate chromatids, so if there are 6 tetrads in prophase I of meiosis , then after split in anaphase II, there will be 12 dyads.
So, the correct answer is, '12'.
