Final answer:
The correct order of the five sub-stages of prophase I are Leptotene, Zygotene, Pachytene, Diplotene, Diakinesis. In mitosis, the sequence of events is prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase, followed by cytokinesis.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct order of the sub-stages of prophase I in meiosis is a) Leptotene, Zygotene, Pachytene, Diplotene, Diakinesis. During these stages, homologous chromosomes undergo pairing, synapsis, and crossing over, which is crucial for genetic variation. Now, turning our attention to the correct order of events in mitosis, it begins with prophase, followed by prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and completes with telophase. Cytokinesis follows these stages, culminating in cell division.
Regarding mitosis, the events sequence is as follows: During prophase, the chromosomes condense and the mitotic spindle begins to form, prometaphase sees the nuclear envelope breaking down and the spindle connecting to chromosomes, metaphase lines up the chromosomes at the metaphase plate, anaphase involves the sister chromatids pulling apart to opposite poles of the cell, and telophase is when the nuclear membrane starts to reform, culminating in cytokinesis where the cell ultimately divides.
