Botany - Cell Cycle and Cell Division Question with Solution | TestHub
Which one of the following pairs is correctly matched?
Options:
Answer:
Solution:
Anaphase I involves separartion of homologous chromosomes which start moving opposite poles so each tetrad is divided into two daughter dyads.
In Metaphase I Centromeres of homologous chromosomes lie equisdistant from equator and are directed towards the poles while arms generally lie horizontally on the equator. Each homologous chromosome has two kinetochores and both the kinetochores of a chromosome are joined to the chromosomal or tractile fibre of same side.
Whereas Prophase I is divided in five subphases i.e., leptotene, zygotene, pachytene, diplotene and diakinesis.
Interphase : It is the period between the end of one cell division to the beginning of next cell division. It is also called resting phase or not dividing phase.
