Question

match each description to the correct phase of meiosis. 1. nuclear envelopes re - form around four separate haploid nuclei. 2. unpaired chromosomes line up along the metaphase plate. 3. synapsis of homologous chromosomes and crossing over take place. 4. a new spindle apparatus begins to form in two separate haploid cells. 5. sister chromatids separate and are pulled to opposite poles of the cell. 6. the two members of each homologous pair are pulled to opposite poles of the cell while sister chromatids remain attached. 7. nuclear envelopes re - form around two separate haploid nuclei. 8. chromosomes line up in pairs along the spindle equator. match each of the options above to the items below

Explanation:

1. In telophase II of meiosis, nuclear envelopes re - form around four separate haploid nuclei.
2. In metaphase II, unpaired chromosomes line up along the metaphase plate.
3. In prophase I, synapsis of homologous chromosomes and crossing - over take place.
4. In prophase II, a new spindle apparatus begins to form in two separate haploid cells.
5. In anaphase II, sister chromatids separate and are pulled to opposite poles of the cell.
6. In anaphase I, the two members of each homologous pair are pulled to opposite poles of the cell while sister chromatids remain attached.
7. In telophase I, nuclear envelopes re - form around two separate haploid nuclei.
8. In metaphase I, chromosomes line up in pairs along the spindle equator.

1. Telophase II
2. Metaphase II
3. Prophase I
4. Prophase II
5. Anaphase II
6. Anaphase I
7. Telophase I
8. Metaphase I
