Solution

The correct option is A Two chromatids
The leptotene stage, also known as the leptonema, is the first of five substages of prophase I in meiosis. A cell destined to become a gamete enters the leptotene stage after its chromosome are duplicated during interphase.
So, the correct option is 'Two chromatids'.
