Question

Interkinesis is a stage between:

• A. G2 and M Phase
• B. Meiosis I and Meiosis II
• C. Telophase and Cytokinesis
• D. Diakinesis and Metaphase II

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Meiosis I and Meiosis II

• Interkinesis:

  1. Interkinesis, also known as interphase II, is a period of rest that certain species' cells experience between meiosis I and meiosis II.

  2. During interkinesis, no DNA replication occurs; nevertheless, replication occurs during the interphase I stage of meiosis.

  3. The DNA is copied at this step, resulting in the formation of chromosomes, which are made up of two sister chromatids.

  4. Interkinesis is a second growth phase that occurs between the two divisions of meiosis I and meiosis II. At this point, there will be no DNA replication.
