During anaphase I of meiosis I:
| 1. | The homologous chromosomes separate, while sister chromatids remain associated at their centromeres. |
| 2. | Simultaneous splitting of the centromere of each chromosome allows the sister chromatids to move towards opposite poles of the cell. |
| 3. | The nucleolus disappears and the nuclear envelope also breaks down. |
| 4. | the centrosome in animal cells undergoes replication. |

Crossing over:

3. Only II, III and IV are correct
4. I, II, III and IV are correct
| I: | is the exchange of genetic material between two sister chromatids of heterologous chromosomes. |
| II: | is an enzyme-mediated process and the enzyme involved is called recombinase. |
| III: | leads to recombination of genetic material on the two chromosomes. |
| IV: | is completed by the end of pachytene, leaving the chromosomes linked at the sites of crossing over. |

| I: | paired chromosomes are called homologous chromosomes. |
| II: | Chromosome synapsis is accompanied by the formation of complex structure called synaptonemal complex. |
| III: | The complex formed by a pair of synapsed homologous chromosomes is called a bivalent or a tetrad. |
