Answer:
See the answer below
Step-by-step explanation:
The various stages of propase I of meiosis I in chronological order would be
1. Leptotene
2. Zygotene
3. Pachytene
4. Diplotene
5. Diakinesis
The leptotene stage is characterized by the thickening or condensation of the genetic material in the nucleus such that 'thick thread' structures is formed.
At the zygotene stage, the thickness advances and structures can be seen as chromosomes under the microscope. Homologous chromosomes are seen pairing up (synapsis) through the formation of synaptonemal complex to form tetrads or bivalents.
At pachytene, an exchange of chromosomal segments between synapsed homologous chromosomes occur in a process known as crossing over. The exchange point along the synapsed chromosomes are known as the chiasmata. After the crossing over, homologous chromosomes begin to separate but remains joined at the chiasmata.
At diplotene, the dissolution of the synaptonemal complex occur and homologous chromosomes still held together by the chiasmata begin to repel one another. The chiasmata becomes terminalized.
At Diakinesis, chromosomal condensation is completed and the cell is conditioned to progress to metaphase I of meiosis I.
