Explanation:

During the process of prophase I, the nuclear envelope containing chromosomes has only partly broken down homologous chromosomes are joined together by proteins and a complex or pairing call synapsis- corresponding genes on sister chromatids are aligned precisely.

The syanapsis allows for crossing over which is the exchange of segments of chromosome, between non-sister homologous or similar chromatids crossing over happens at chiasmata, the point where non-sister chromosomes are joined.

Further Explanation:

All the genetic information within the eukaryotic cell is stored within the nucleus as helical DNA. This DNA is tightly wound around histones as chromosomes. In meiosis, the number of chromosomes (2n) is halved to 23 chromosomes (haploid number)through meiotic divisions, producing 4 haploid (n) germ cells or gametes (sperm or eggs), each containing half the number of chromosomes as its parent cell.

In Meiosis I

homologs pair off into bivalents
At crossing over: the exchange of segments of chromosome, between non-sister homologous or similar chromatids crossing over happens at chiasmata, the point where non-sister chromosomes are joined in prophase I forming bivalents; tetrads are formed.
Spindle fibers from centrioles join sister chromatids together at their centromeres in metaphase I, pulling them to the equator of the cell;
then, in anaphase I, while joined, they are pulled to opposite sides of the cell; the cell body splits and the nuclear envelope reforms in telophase I

In Meiosis II...

Later, in prophase II, the nuclear envelope disintegrates and mitotic spindle fibers are formed
independent assortment occurs. in metaphase II of meiosis: spindle fibers attach to centromeres, chromatids align independently at the equator. Genes segregate independently into new combinations as sister chromatids are pulled apart by their centromeres in anaphase II
in telophase II the cells' nuclei and membrane are then formed with each containing the haploid number (n)
Following the formation of gametes in the last stage, randomized fertilization occurs in sexual reproduction sperm cells fertilize an ovum to form a zygote. This occurs randomly by chance, to result in a complete set of chromosomes 2n, that is a novel combination of half each parent's number of chromosomes

Harrizon [31]

The appropriate response is Monosodium Glutamate. Unadulterated MSG is accounted for to not have a wonderful taste to the point that it is joined with an exquisite fragrance. The fundamental tactile capacity of MSG is credited to its capacity to upgrade flavorful taste-dynamic mixes when included the best possible concentration. The ideal fixation differs by nourishment; in clear soup, the joy score quickly falls with the expansion of more than one gram of MSG for each 100 mL.

D. This is because artificial selection is basically the human breeding of plants or animals, and we do so in a way to bring forth the best traits to solve a problem or create a better product.
Hope this helps!
