Q.

Regarding Meiosis, which of the statements is incorrect?

  1. A

    There are two stages in Meiosis, Meiosis-I and II

  2. B

    DNA replication occurs in S phase of Meiosis-II

  3. C

    Pairing of homologous chromosomes and recombination occurs in Meiosis-I

  4. D

    Four haploid cells are formed at the end of Meiosis-II

Solution

DNA replication occurs only once during meiosis, in the S phase of interphase that precedes Meiosis-I. There is no separate S phase between Meiosis-I and Meiosis-II.

Statement (2) is therefore incorrect.
