Question

Which of the following is the correct order of events in meiosis? Identify the phase in which each even occurs.

1 Sister chromatids line up at the metaphase plate.

2 The kinetochore becomes attached to the mitotic spindle.

3 Spindle microtubules pull the homologous chromosomes apart.

4 The nucleus reforms and the cell divides.

5 Cohesin proteins break down and the sister chromatids separate.

6 Nucleolus disappears.

7 Synapsis occurs with the pairing of homologous chromosomes.

8 Tetrads randomly assemble at the metaphase plate.

9 Centrosomes are duplicated.

The correct order of events of meiosis

1. Nucleolus disappear (prophase I)

3. Synapsis occurs with the pairing of homologous chromosomes (zygotene of prophase I)

5 Tetrads randomly assemble at the metaphse plate ( metaphase I)

6. Spindle microtubule pulls the homologous chromosomes apart.
