As learnt in

Pachytene -

The third stage of prophase I, bivalent chromosomes clearly appears as tetrads, crossing over between homologous chromosomes occur.

 

- wherein

Pachytene

 

 

Metaphase I -

The bivalents chromosomes align on the equatorial plate of spindle. The microtubes from the opposite poles of the spindle attach to the pair of homologous chromosomes.

 

- wherein

 

 

Diakinesis -

Final Stage of  prophase -I marked by terminalisation of chaismata. Chromosomes are fully condensed and -meiotic spindle is assembled to prepare the homologous chromosome for seperation.

 

- wherein

 

 

Zygotene -

The second stage of Prophase I. Chromosomes starts pairing together in a process called synapsis. Each paired chromosome is homologous. Synapsis is accompanied by the formation of the complex structures-synaptonemal complex.

 

- wherein

Zygotene

 

 Different stages of cell division with their characteristics
