Q. No.In meiotic cell division, the simultaneous splitting of the centromere of each chromosome allowing sister chromatids to move toward opposite poles of the cell by shortening of microtubules attached to kinetochores, occurs during:
1. Metaphase I
2. Metaphase II
3. Anaphase I
4. Anaphase II

In contrast to meiosis I, meiosis II:
| 1. | is much lengthy in duration. |
| 2. | leads to reduction in the number of chromosomes. |
| 3. | is characterised by replication of DNA just before its beginning. |
| 4. | resembles a normal mitosis. |
