The complex formed by a pair of synapsed homologous chromosomes is called
-
- Kinetochore
- Bivalent
- Axoneme
- Equatorial plate
Correct Option: B
During zygotene, second stage of meiosis I, homologous chromosomes start pairing together forming a complex structure called synaptonemal complex. The complex formed by a pair of synapsed homologous chromosome is called a bivalent or a tetrad. Crossing over occurs between non sister chromatids of bivalent in the next stage.
