(A) Crossing over
[2015 RS]
(B) Synapsis
(C) Terminalisation of chiasmata
(D) Disappearance of nucleolus
Show Answer
Answer : a
Hints & Solutions
(a) Pachytene - Crossing over mediated by recombinase enzyme. Zygotene - Pairing of homologous chromosomes $G_2$ phase - Synthesis of RNA and protein Anaphase I - Centromeres do not separate but chromatids move towards opposite poles.
