Solution

The correct option is D metaphase 2
During metaphase of both mitosis and meiosis, the chromosomes become arranged on the metaphase plate, and are attached to the fully formed spindle.
Here in this figure, the chromosomes are arranged on the metaphase plate after the exchange of genetic material during crossing-over has taken place.
Such a scenario occurs only during the metaphase II stage of meiosis.
