Question

Match List-I with List-II regarding the stages of Prophase-I (Meiosis I):

List-I (Event)
A. Chiasmata
B. Crossing over
C. Synaptonemal complex
D. Terminalisation of chiasmata

List-II (Stage)
I. Pachytene
II. Diakinesis
III. Diplotene
IV. Zygotene

Accepted Answer

According to the textbook description of Prophase I stages:
- (A) Chiasmata: The X-shaped structures are called chiasmata and appear during the Diplotene stage .
- (B) Crossing over: Occurs between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes during Pachytene .
- (C) Synaptonemal complex: Chromosome synapsis is accompanied by the formation of this complex during Zygotene .
- (D) Terminalisation of chiasmata: This marks the final stage of meiotic prophase I, known as Diakinesis .
