Question 27

chromosomes start to coil and shorten nuclear envelope disintegrates homologs pair up through synapsis crossing over, which contributes to genetic variability, may occur between homologs

Answer 27

PROPHASE 1

Question 28

homologs align at the metaphase plate homologs attach to spindle fibers at the kinetochore in their centromeres

Answer 28

META PHASE 1
