When synapsis is complete all along the chromosome, the cell is said to have entered a stage called
zygotene
pachytene
diplotene
diakinesis
Which of the following maintain the constant number of chromosomes generation after generation?
Meiosis
Endomitosis
Mitosis
Amitosis
A.
Meiosis
Meiosis is also known as reduction division. It maintains the constant number of chromosomes generation after generation. It occurs in reproductive cells only and somatic body increases in size through mitotic division.
In meiosis division is
Ist reductional and IInd equational
Ist equational and IInd reductional
both reductional
both equational
Lampbrush chromosomes are seen in which typical stage
mitotic anaphase
mitotic prophase
mitotic metaphase
meiotic prophase
Chiasmata are most appropriately observed in meiosis during :
diakinesis
diplotene
metaphase II
pachytene
Colchicine prevents the mitosis of the cells at which of the following stage?
Anaphase
Metaphase
Prophase
Interphase
