Tetras form in a cell when there are four homologous chromosomes present during the prophase I stage of meiosis. This grouping allows for the process of synapsis, where homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange genetic material through crossing over. The formation of tetras is crucial for genetic diversity in gametes.
