Question

Which of the following events occur during diplotene stage of prophase-I of meiosis? (A) Compaction of chromosomes (B) Formation of synaptonemal complex (C) Formation of recominational nodules (D) Dissolution of synaptonemal complex

During diplotene, the synaptic forces keeping the homologous chromosomes together come to an end. Homologous chromosomes start separating. This is called disjunction. The synaptonimal complexes generally disappear during diplotene and the axial filaments become unpaired.
