Select the correct option by matching Column I with Column II:

Column I

  • a. Synapsis aligns homologous chromosomes
  • b. Synthesis of RNA and protein
  • c. Action of enzyme recombinase
  • d. Centromeres do not separate but chromatids move toward opposite poles

Column II

  • i. Anaphase-II
  • ii. Zygotene
  • iii. G2-Phase
  • iv. Anaphase-I
  • v. Pachytene

Correct answer: a → ii, b → iii, c → v, d → iv

Detailed Solution

(a) Synapsis aligns homologous chromosomes — Zygotene (ii)
(b) Synthesis of RNA and protein — G2 phase (iii)
(c) Action of enzyme recombinase — Pachytene (v)
(d) Centromeres do not separate but chromatids move towards opposite poles — Anaphase-I (iv)
Correct match: a-ii, b-iii, c-v, d-iv.
