During meiosis i, the homologous chromosomes of a tetrad face the same spindle pole. face both spindle poles. face opposite spindle poles. do not face spindle poles, but are aligned at the spindle equator. undergo separation of sister chromatids.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Face opposite spindle poles

Explanation:

Meiosis is a kind of cell division that involves the formation of daughter cells with a reduced chromosomal number (by half). Since the chromosome number is reduced, it occurs in a two step division process viz: Meiosis I and Meiosis II. In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes (similar but non-identical chromosomes received from each parent) separate.

In the Metaphase stage of meiosis I specifically, spindle microtubules from opposite poles of the cell attaches to the kinetochores of each chromosome and aligns them at the equator. This alignment is done in such a way that each homologous chromosome of a tetrad or bivalent (pairing of homologous chromosomes) faces opposite spindle pole in order for their separation to opposite poles in Anaphase to be accomplished.
