Vedclass · Answer

(B) Prophase of $Meiosis-I$ is significantly longer and more complex than the prophase of $Mitosis$. This is because $Meiosis-I$ prophase is divided into five distinct sub-stages: $Leptotene$,$Zygotene$,$Pachytene$,$Diplotene$,and $Diakinesis$. These stages involve complex processes such as synapsis,crossing over,and the formation of chiasmata,which are not present in mitotic prophase.

List-$I$	List-$II$
$a$. Zygotene	$i$. Terminalization
$b$. Pachytene	$ii$. Chiasmata
$c$. Diplotene	$iii$. Crossing over
$d$. Diakinesis	$iv$. Synapsis
