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. |
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 |
Assertion(A): | Mitosis is called equational division. |
Reason(R): | The amount of DNA is the same in parent and progeny cells if it is mitosis. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is true, but (R) is false. |
4. | (A) is false, but (R) is true. |
Assertion(A): | Meiosis reduces the chromosome number by half in gametes. |
Reason(R): | Meiosis is called the reductional division. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is true, but (R) is false. |
4. | (A) is false, but (R) is true. |
Assertion(A): | Cell growth disturbs the nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio. |
Reason(R): | The disturbance in the nucleo-cytoplasmic ratio stimulates cell division. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is true, but (R) is false. |
4. | (A) is false, but (R) is true. |
Assertion (A): | In meiosis II division is equational. |
Reason (R): | Homologous chromosomes are separated in anaphase II |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is true, but (R) is false. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
1. | 2N, 2C | 2. | 4N, 2C |
3. | 2N, 4C | 4. | 4N, 4C |
Statement I: | The interphase represents the phase between two successive M phases and DNA replication takes place in the interphase. |
Statement II: | The stage between the two meiotic divisions is called interkinesis and there is no replication of DNA during interkinesis. |
