The dissolution of synaptonemal complex occurs during :
- APachytene
- BDiplotene
- CDiakinesis
- DLeptotene
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: B
The dissolution of the synaptonemal complex occurs during :
Option B : Diplotene
Diplotene is the stage of meiosis during which the synaptonemal complex, a structure that holds homologous chromosomes together, dissolves, and the chromosomes begin to move apart, although they remain attached at chiasmata (points of crossing over).
