Consider the given two statements:
| Statement I: | At Metaphase I the chromosomes align at the equator and the microtubules from opposite poles of the spindle get attached to the kinetochores of sister chromatids. |
| Statement II: | At metaphase II the bivalent chromosomes align on the equatorial plate and microtubules from the opposite poles of the spindle attach to the kinetochore of homologous chromosomes. |
| 1. | Statement I is correct and Statement II is incorrect. |
| 2. | Statement I is incorrect and Statement II is incorrect. |
| 3. | Statement I is correct and Statement II is correct. |
