Answer:
Chiasmata
Explanation:
During diplotene stage, chromatids become clear and the bivalents are now called tetrads. At places homologous chromosomes remain attached to each other. The points of attachment between non-sister chromatids of two homologous chromosomes are called chiasmata. They are the sites of previous crossing over where synaptonemal complex persists
