Question

For the following question, match the key event of meiosis with the stages listed below. I. Prophase I V. Prophase II II. Metaphase I VI. Metaphase II III. Anaphase I VII. Anaphase II IV. Telophase I VIII. Telophase II Centromeres of sister chromatids disjoin and chromatids separate.

Answer 1

Answer:

VII. Anaphase II

Explanation:

During metaphase II, fibers of the spindle apparatus drive chromosomes to the cell equatorial plane, where they line up. Sister chromatids are holden together until they reach Anaphase II, during which specialized enzymes break the bonds between chromatids and separate them. Each chromatid migrates to one of the poles. In telophase II, the new chromosomes are already in the corresponding poles, and the nuclear membrane forms again in each pole
