Options

A. `{:(A,B,C,D),(3,4,2,1):}`
B. `{:(A,B,C,D),(1,4,2,3):}`
C. `{:(A,B,C,D),(2,4,3,1):}`
D. `{:(A,B,C,D),(4,3,2,1):}`

Answer

A

Explanation

Various phase of meiosis and their characteristic features are
Pachytene - Crossing - over takes place
Mataphase-I - Chromosomes align at equatorial plate
Diakinesis - Terminalisation of chiasmata
Zygotene - Pairing of homologous chromosomes
