Solution

The correct option is A Meiotic prophase
Lampbrush chromosomes are known as diplotene chromosomes because they are formed during the diplotene stage of prophase1 of meiosis cell division due to the active transcription of many genes.
They are a special type of chromosome found in the developing oocytes of most animals (except mammals).
So, the correct answer is 'Meiotic prophase'.
