Diakinesis

Vedclass · Answer

(C) Diakinesis is the final stage of meiotic prophase-$I$. During this stage,the chromosomes are fully condensed and the meiotic spindle is assembled to prepare the homologous chromosomes for separation. The most characteristic feature of diakinesis is the complete terminalisation of chiasmata,where the chiasmata move towards the ends of the chromatids. Additionally,the nucleolus disappears and the nuclear envelope breaks down. $RNA$ synthesis is also inhibited during this stage as the chromosomes become highly condensed and transcriptionally inactive.

Column $I$	Column $II$
$(a)$ Prophase-$I$	$(p)$ Nucleolus and nuclear membrane reappear
$(b)$ Metaphase-$I$	$(q)$ Longest phase
$(c)$ Anaphase-$I$	$(r)$ Homologous chromosomes align at the equatorial plate
$(d)$ Telophase-$I$	$(s)$ Number of chromosomes reaching each pole is half of the original cell

The beginning of which stage of prophase is marked by complete terminalisation of chiasmata and inhibition of $RNA$ synthesis?
