Consider the given two statements:
I: | Meiosis is responsible for maintaining the chromosome number across generations in sexually reproducing organisms. |
II: | Meiosis results in reduction of chromosome number by half in the daughter cells. |
1. | Both I and II are correct and II explains I |
2. | Both I and II are correct but II does not explain I |
3. | I is correct but II is incorrect |
4. | I is incorrect but II is correct |
Centromeres split leading to the separation of sister chromatids and the pulling of the separated sister chromatids to the opposite poles is seen in:
I: | Mitotic anaphase |
II: | Anaphase I |
III: | Anaphase II |
1. | Only I |
2. | Only I and II |
3. | Only III |
4. | Only I and III |
