Question

Describe what happens during prophase I and metaphase I and how these phases play an important role in the genetic diversity of the daughter cells produced.

Answer 1

in prophase1 u can clearly see tetrads and in metaphase1 these tetradsget align on a metaphagic plate

Answer 2

I think all the phases in meiosis are equally important
Juz as heena said, the chromosomes become thicker so it is visible under a microscope
in metaphase, it aligns in the middle of the cell, and will get separated in the later phase
