Question

What is the gap between meiosis I and II is called?

• A. Interphase
• B. Interkinesis
• C. Diakinesis
• D. Metakinesis

Answer 1

The correct option is B Interkinesis

Preparatory phase before cell division leads to the synthesis of cellular proteins which actively participates in cell division. The gap between meiosis I and II is called as interkinesis. It is a period of rest for the cells where no DNA replication occurs during interkinesis, however, it does occur during the interphase I stage of meiosis.

So, the correct answer is option B.
