Solution

The correct option is A Pachytene
  • Recombination nodules are formed during the pachytene stage of meiosis which helps to exchange the genetic segments between two non-sister chromatids.
  • Recombinase enzymes play a prominent role in the formation of recombination nodules.
So, the correct answer is 'Pachytene'.
