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.
4. Statement I is incorrect and Statement II is correct.

Consider the given two statements:
Assertion (A): Meiosis is the mechanism by which conservation of specific chromosome number of each species is achieved across generations in sexually reproducing organisms.
