Question

what is the step that is labeled d?
metaphase i
metaphase ii
telophase ii
telophase i

Explanation:

Metaphase I is a stage in meiosis where homologous chromosomes align at the cell's equator. In the image, the alignment of homologous chromosomes (as seen in the structure labeled D) is characteristic of metaphase I. Metaphase II would show individual chromosomes (not homologous pairs) aligning. Telophase I and II involve chromosome separation and nuclear envelope re - formation, which is not depicted here.

Answer:

metaphase I
