A stage of mitosis is shown in the diagram. Which stage is it and what are its characteristics?
| 1. | Metaphase-spindle fibers attached to kinetochores, centromeres split and chromatids separate |
| 2. | Metaphase- chromosomes moved to spindle equator, chromosomes made up of two sister chromatids |
| 3. | Anaphase - centromeres split and chromatids separate and start moving away |
| 4. | Late prophase - chromosomes move to spindle equator |

What will be correct regarding metaphase of mitosis?
1. Only I and II
2. Only I and III
3. Only II and III
4. I, II and III
| I: | The complete disintegration of the nuclear envelope marks the start of metaphase. |
| II: | Condensation of chromosomes is completed. |
| III: | All the chromosomes come to lie at the equator. |
2. Only I and III
3. Only II and III
4. I, II and III

Identify the incorrectly matched pair:
| 1. | Prophase II: | The nuclear membrane disappears by the end of this stage and the chromosomes again become compact. |
| 2. | Metaphase II: | The chromosomes align at the equator and the microtubules from opposite poles of the spindle get attached to the kinetochores of sister chromatids. |
| 3. | Anaphase II: | The homologous chromosomes separate, while sister chromatids remain associated at their centromeres. |
| 4. | Telophase II: | The two groups of chromosomes once again get enclosed by a nuclear envelope |
