Concept 5: Meiosis I: Metaphase I
The pairs of chromosomes (bivalents) become arranged on the metaphase plate and are attached to the now fully formed meiotic spindle.
The centrioles are at opposite poles of the cell.
The pairs of homologous chromosomes (the bivalents), now as tightly coiled and condensed as they will be in meiosis, become arranged on a plane equidistant from the poles called the metaphase plate.
Spindle fibers from one pole of the cell attach to one chromosome of each pair (seen as sister chromatids), and spindle fibers from the opposite pole attach to the homologous chromosome (again, seen as sister chromatids).

Answer: here it goes..
Explanation:
In metaphase I, the two chromosomes of a homologous pair face opposite poles. ... This means that the resulting two cells (produced during cytokinesis at the end of meiosis I) will contain full sets of chromosomes, but these will not consist of chromosome pairs.
HOPE U FOUND THIS HELPFUL.. :)))
