Vedclass · Answer

(A) Meiosis is a specialized type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half. It involves two successive nuclear and cytoplasmic divisions,known as Meiosis-$I$ and Meiosis-$II$. In Meiosis-$I$,the homologous chromosomes separate,and in Meiosis-$II$,the sister chromatids separate. As a result,a single diploid $(2n)$ parent cell undergoes two rounds of division to produce four genetically distinct haploid $(n)$ daughter cells.

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$(A)$ Pachytene	$(i)$ Pairing of homologous chromosomes
$(B)$ Metaphase-$I$	$(ii)$ Terminalisation of chiasmata
$(C)$ Diakinesis	$(iii)$ Crossing-over takes place
$(D)$ Zygotene	$(iv)$ Chromosomes align at equatorial plate

Which of the following statements is consistent with meiosis?
