Q. Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct about meiosis?
I. Meiosis involves pairing of hom*ologous chromosomes and recombination between them.
II. Two diploid cells are formed at the end of meiosis-II.
III. Meiosis involves two sequential cycles of nuclear and cell division called meiosis-I and meiosis-II, but only a single cycle of DNA replication.
IV. Meiosis-I is initiated after the parental chromosome replication, which produces identical sister chromatids at the S-phase.

Q. Pick the correct statements.
A. Synapsis of hom*ologous chromosomes takes place during prophase I of meiosis.
B. Division of centromeres takes place during anaphase I of meiosis.
C. Spindle fibres disappear completely in telophase of mitosis.
D. Nucleoli reappear at telophase I of meiosis.

Q. Which of the following events takes place during anaphase stage of mitosis?
I. Spindle fibres attach to kinetochores of chromosomes
II. Centromeres split and chromatids separate
III. Chromatids move to opposite poles
