In which of the following stage, the chromosome
is single thin and like long thread ?
(a) Leptotene (b) Zygotene
(c) Pachytene (d) Diakinesis
Answers
Answer:
the correct answer is a) leptotene
Answer:
✔The correct answer is (a) Leptotene✔
Explaination:
☆ The Prophase-1 of the Meiosis-1 has following sub-phases:
➪Leptotene : It is the beginning of the prophase and the chromosomes appear as thin long threads. The condensation of chromosome is still not done by this phase.
➪ Zygotene : By this phase, the homologous chromosomes start pairing up and the chromosomes appear condensed and thick. The synaptonemal complex is also visible.
➪ Pachytene : This phase marks the exchange of parts between the non-sister chromatids of the homologous chromosomes called the crossing-over. The point of attachment of the non-sister chromatids, called the chiasma (pl. chiasmata) is also visible.
➪ Diakinesis : By this stage, the nuclear membrane and the nucleolus disppear and the homologous chromosomes move away from the point of the chiasma.
✪ Hence, the correct answer is 'Leptotene'. ✪
