Meiosis I - Anaphase I
Advertisements
Description:
The changes a cell undergoes during anaphase I are as follows −
- Separation of homologous chromosomes.
- Homologous chromosome start moving towards opposite poles.
- Each tetrad is divided into two dyads.
- Anaphase-I involves reduction of chromosome number. This phenomenon is called disjunction.
- The shape of the separating chromosome may be rod or J or V-shaped.
- The shape of the separating chromosome depends on the position of centromere.
