What happens in metaphase I of meiosis?

What happens in metaphase I of meiosis?
  1. Homologous chromosomes move to the opposite poles
  2. Bivalents arrange on the equatorial plate
  3. Homologous chromosomes pair to form bivalents and undergo crossing over
  4. Sister chromatids separate

Solution

During metaphase I, the bivalents arrange on the equatorial plate, which is followed by anaphase I in which homologous chromosomes move to the opposite poles with both their chromatids.
