Multiple Choice
During telophase II of meiosis, which of the following events occurs?
A
Homologous chromosomes pair (synapsis) and crossing over occurs between non-sister chromatids.
B
Sister chromatids separate and move toward opposite poles of the cell.
C
Nuclear envelopes reform around each set of chromosomes, cytokinesis typically follows, and four haploid nuclei/cells are produced.
D
Homologous chromosome pairs align at the metaphase plate as tetrads.
Verified step by step guidance1
Recall the stages of meiosis and their key events, focusing on meiosis II, which includes prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II, and telophase II.
Understand that during telophase II, the process involves the final steps of meiosis where the chromosomes reach the poles and the cell prepares to divide.
Identify that homologous chromosomes pairing (synapsis) and crossing over occur during prophase I, not telophase II.
Recognize that sister chromatids separate and move toward opposite poles during anaphase II, which is the stage before telophase II.
Conclude that during telophase II, nuclear envelopes reform around each set of chromosomes, cytokinesis typically follows, and four haploid nuclei or cells are produced, completing meiosis.
