Question

during which phase of meiosis do the homologous chromosomes separate and head towards opposite poles of the cell?
multiple choice
metaphase i
anaphase ii
telophase i
metaphase ii

Explanation:

In meiosis, homologous chromosomes separate and move to opposite poles during anaphase I. Metaphase I is when homologous chromosomes line - up at the equator. Anaphase II involves the separation of sister chromatids. Telophase I is the end of the first meiotic division and metaphase II is when chromosomes line - up for the second meiotic division.

Answer:

No correct option provided in the given choices. The correct answer is Anaphase I.
