Meiosis is reductional division where as, meiosis II is equational division due to
Pairing of homologous chromosomes
Disjunction of homologous chromosomes
Separation of chromatids
Crossing over
Segregation of Mendelian factors occurs during
diplotene
anaphase - I
zygotene/ pachytene
anaphase- II
Exchange of paternal and maternal chromosome material during cell division is called
dyad formation
crossing over
synapsis
bivalent formation
The number of chromosomes becomes half in
anaphase I
anaphase II
telophase I
telophase II
Meiosis takes place in
reproductive cells
apical meristem
vegetative cells
intercalary meristem
