Metaphase I of meiosis involves homologous chromosomes pairing up at the metaphase plate. Each homologous chromosome consists of two sister chromatids. Metaphase of mitosis involves individual chromosomes, each composed of two sister chromatids, aligning at the Show more…

Which of the following statements best describes the major difference between metaphase I of meiosis and metaphase of mitosis? (2 points) In metaphase I, tetrad sets of homologous chromosomes stay together as they line up along the center of the cell. In metaphase, homologous chromosomes are separated as each sister chromatid set is pulled to one end of the cell. In metaphase, sister chromatids are separated and pulled apart to form a total of four new haploid cells. In metaphase I, sets of sister chromatids line up at the center of the cell and the spindle fibers pull them apart.
How does metaphase in meiosis I differ from metaphase in mitosis? In mitosis, single chromosomes are pulled apart at the centromere, while in meiosis !, homologous pairs of chromosomes are pulled apart from one another: In mitosis, homologous pairs of chromosomes are pulled apart from one another; while in meiosis single chromosomes are pulled apart at the centromere: In mitosis, homologous chromosomes are pulled apart at the centromeres, while in meiosis !, single chromosomes pair up before being pulled apart. In mitosis, single chromosomes pair up before being pulled apart, while in meiosis !, homologous chromosomes are pulled apart at the centromeres Option 5
