KROK 1 2013 – Question 167 · KROK (Medicine) · Histology, Cytology, and Embryology

Students study the stages of gametogenesis. They analyze a cell having a haploid number of chromosomes, and each chromosome consists of two chromatids. The chromosomes are located in the equatorial plane of the cell. Such situation is typical for the following stage of meiosis:

  1. A. Metaphase of the first division
  2. B. Anaphase of the second division
  3. C. Anaphase of the first division
  4. D. Prophase of the first division
  5. E. Metaphase of the second division
Hint

Work out whether the cell is still diploid or already haploid at this stage and how many chromatids each chromosome carries, then match that with the position of the chromosomes.
