In meiosis there are two consecutive cell division events without intervening G1, S and G2 phases between meiosis I and meiosis II.
So, there is no S phase before meiosis II and no DNA replication will happen before meiosis II.
Regarding meiosis, which of the statements is incorrect?
Held on 30 Apr 2022 · Verified 9 Jul 2026.
DNA replication occurs in S phase of meiosis-II
Pairing of homologous chromosomes and recombination occurs in meiosis-I
Four haploid cells are formed at the end of meiosis-II
There are two stages in meiosis, meiosis-I and II
