What is a pair of homologous chromosomes in meiosis?

Answer 1

synapsis

Answer 2

synapsis (if you need proof then go to http://www.sumanasinc.com/webcontent/animations/content/meiosis.html)(Click to Animation, then go to Step-Through, then go to the 3rd slide of 11 and there is your proof.)

The pair of homologous chromosomes is called a tetrad and synapsis is the process.

Answer 3

Homologous chromosomes are pairs of chromosomes, one from the mother and one from the father, in which each homolog has the same genes at the same loci along their lengths. During prophase I in meiosis, the two chromosomes in each homologous pair line up next to each other. This pairing process is called synapsis, and the resulting homologous pair is called a bivalent in reference to the two chromosomes or a tetrad in reference to the four sister chromatids involved. During synapsis, pieces of the homologous chromosomes may exchange places, so that each chromosome of a homologous pair contains alleles from both parents. This process is called crossing over.

Answer 4

The homologous chromosomes are separated and one of each is carried to each daughter cell.

Answer 5

Homologues only pair in meiosis. They are called tetrads or bivalents.
