Vedclass · Answer

(B) In mitosis,prophase involves the condensation of chromatin into chromosomes,but no pairing of homologous chromosomes occurs.In contrast,prophase-$I$ of meiosis is characterized by specific events such as synapsis (pairing of homologous chromosomes) and the formation of bivalents or tetrads (a group of four chromatids).Therefore,the formation of tetrads is a unique feature of prophase-$I$ of meiosis that is absent in the prophase of mitosis.

Column $I$	Column $II$
$A$. Diakinesis	$1$. Crossing over takes place
$B$. Pachytene	$2$. Terminalisation of chiasmata
$C$. Zygotene	$3$. Chromosomes align at equatorial plate
$D$. Metaphase	$4$. Pairing of homologous chromosomes

$A$ cell in prophase of mitosis can be distinguished from a cell in prophase-$I$ of meiosis by
