In humans,... The X and Y chromosomes of males separate during anaphase II of mitosis. The X and Y chromosomes of males separate during anaphase I of meiosis. The X and Y chromosomes of males separate during anaphase II of meiosis. The X and Y chromosomes of males separate during anaphase I of mitosis.

In a germ cell from a human male that is dividing, when do the X and Y chromosomes segregate?

Information or a bivalent during meiosis ensures that one chromatid from the mother and one chromatid from the father will segregate all four sister chromatids remain together until the cell is ready to divide: recombination will occur between identical sister chromatids. The sex chromosomes, which are not identical, will line up separately at the metaphase plate during meiosis. Which of the following statements about meiosis is true? During meiosis, the paternal chromosomes pair with the maternal chromosomes before lining up at the metaphase plate. Unicellular organisms that have a haploid state undergo meiosis instead of mitosis during cell division. Meiosis produces four genetically identical cells. In general, meiosis is faster than mitosis. During recombination, sister chromatids switch positions, and cell chiasmata hold chromosomes together: one crossover event occurs for each pair of human chromosomes. The synaptonemal complex keeps the sister chromatids together until anaphase. After the first meiotic cell division, two haploid gametes are produced. Cells are produced that contain the same number of chromosomes as somatic cells: the number of chromosomes will vary depending on how the paternal and maternal chromosomes align at the metaphase plate. DNA replication occurs. During fertilization in humans, a wave of Ca2+ ions is released in the fertilized egg's cytoplasm. Only one sperm binds to the unfertilized egg. Sperm moves in a random fashion until it encounters an egg.
