During the process of meiosis, chromosomes replicate

Question

Responses
A once, during interphase I.once, during interphase I.
B once, during interphase II.once, during interphase II.
C twice, during prophase I and II.twice, during prophase I and II.
D twice, during interphase I and II.

Answer 1

The correct response is:

A once, during interphase I.

During meiosis, chromosomes replicate only once during interphase I, before the meiotic divisions begin. This sets the stage for the two rounds of division that occur in meiosis (meiosis I and meiosis II).
