Question

Select the correct option:

Refer to the given stages A, B, C and D of meiosis I and select the incorrect statement regarding them.

• A. The last stage of A diakinesis which is marked by terminalisation of chiasmata.
• B. In stage B, microtubules from the opposite poles of the spindle attach to the pair of homologous chromosomes.
• C. In stage C, homologous chromosomes separate, while sister chromatids remain associated at their centromeres.
• D. In stage D, nuclear membrane and nucleolus disappear, cytokinesis follows and this is called as dyad of cellls.

Answer 1

The correct option is D In stage D, nuclear membrane and nucleolus disappear, cytokinesis follows and this is called as dyad of cellls.

In the given figure A, B, C, and D represent prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I and telophase I, of meiosis I respectively. In telophase stage of meiosis I nuclear membrane and nucleolus reappear, cytokinesis follows and this is called dyad of cells.

So, the correct answer is 'In stage D, nuclear membrane and nucleolus disappear, cytokinesis follows and this is called as dyad of cells'.
