Question

select the correct statement(s) about meiosis i. the parent cells are divided into 2 daughter cells by the end of meiosis i. the four phases in meiosis i can be remembered by pmat. a period of rest called interkinesis occurs after meiosis i. the parent cells are divided into 4 daughter cells by the end of meiosis i. the separation of cytoplasm is called cytokinesis. cross - over occurs in prophase.

Explanation:

• Meiosis I ends with 2 haploid daughter cells (not 4, which is meiosis II).
• Meiosis I phases: Prophase I, Metaphase I, Anaphase I, Telophase I (PMAT).
• Interkinesis (rest) follows meiosis I before meiosis II.
• Cytokinesis is cytoplasm separation (true for all cell division).
• Cross-over occurs in Prophase I (not general prophase, but the option specifies prophase which refers to Prophase I in meiosis context).

Answer:

The parent cells are divided into 2 daughter cells by the end of meiosis I., The four phases in meiosis I can be remembered by PMAT., A period of rest called interkinesis occurs after meiosis I., The separation of cytoplasm is called cytokinesis., Cross-over occurs in prophase.
