Answer:
The correct answer will be option A (prophase I).
Explanation:
Meiosis is a type of cell division in which a single cell divides to form 4 daughter cells with half number of chromosomes of parents.
Meiosis proceeds in two-step division processes that is meiosis I and meosis II. Each stage of cell division occurs in four phases- prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.
During prophase I, the chromosomes begin to condense and form X-shaped structures, chromosomes pair up ,shows recombination or crossing over, shows meiotic spindles between the centrioles at oppsoite poles and nuclear membrane which starts degrading at the end of prophase phase.
Thus, option A (prophase I) is the correct answer.
