Solution
The correct option is D Dikaryophase Dikaryophase or dikaryon is where 2 cells with haploid nuclei fuse their cytoplasms such that there is just 1 cell with 2 distinct unfused nuclei.
Synkaryon phase is the phase where 2 nuclei fuse together to form a single nucleus.
Metaphase is the second phase in mitosis and meiosis where the chromosomes arrange themselves along the equatorial plane.
Prophase is the first phase of mitosis and meiosis.
