what is synopsis? in which stage meiosis it occure?
Answers
Answer:
Synopsis is a noun meaning summary. ... The ancient Greek word synopsis means “general view.” Synonyms include abridgment, as in a shortened version of a book, and brief, which is a legal word, and sketch, which is a quick outline of a story.
Meiosis occurs only in the germ line (ovaries or testes). During meiosis, cells are produced that have a reduced number of chromosomes (the haploid or n number). This means that when eggs and sperm fuse, the diploid (2n) number of chromosomes is restored
Synapsis takes place during prophase I of meiosis. When homologous chromosomes synapse, their ends are first attached to the nuclear envelope. These end-membrane complexes then migrate, assisted by the extranuclear cytoskeleton, until matching ends have been paired.
