Solution

The correct option is C Metaphase
During metaphase, chromosomes are arranged on a plane, which is known as equatorial plate. It is the second stage of cell division (mitosis or meiosis), in which the chromosomes, each consisting of two chromatids, are arranged on the equatorial plane of the spindle prior to the separation.
