Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
During meiosis, c hromosomes condense and pair up with their partner and the nuclear membrane disappears in what phase?
A
prophase 2
B
interphase
C
prophase 1
D
metaphase 1
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -As prophase II begins, the chromosomes once again condense into tight structures, and the nuclear membrane disintegrates.

Detailed explanation-2: -During metaphase, the nuclear membrane disappears and the chromosomes become aligned half way between the centrioles.

Detailed explanation-3: -Meiosis II is a mitotic division of each of the haploid cells produced in meiosis I. During prophase II, the chromosomes condense, and a new set of spindle fibers forms. The chromosomes begin moving toward the equator of the cell.
