The correct answer is:

(A) In metaphase I, tetrad sets of homologous chromosomes stay together as they line up along the center of the cell.

Explanation:

In meiosis, homologous chromosomes pair with each other (i.e., they form tetrads) and crossing-over occur. In mitosis, not of these things occur. In metaphase I of meiosis, tetrads follow on the metaphase plate.  In mitosis, there is only one state and it creates two daughter cells

What are the chromosomes called when they look like Xs​
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

I think you're referring to the Metaphase...

Explanation:

During Cell Division (or, rather before!) the DNA needs to be replicated. This normally is done by DNA Polymerase, and results in two identical double strands (the "Sister Chromatids".

These chromatids are held together at the Centromere, which will be the heart of the "X"-shape. After that the DNA is packed into Chromosomes by winding it around proteins called Histones. If I remember correctly there are 5 different Histones.

This "Zipping Up" makes the chromosomes more visible.

As the two sister chromatids are still connected, the result is the X-shaped Metaphase Chromosome....
