Question Detail
Question
Which of the following is not associated with mitosis? a. chromatin b. cell plate c. tetrad d. interphase
Correct Answer
Option C is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
Tetrads are structures formed during Prophase I of meiosis, consisting of two homologous chromosomes (four sister chromatids) paired together. They are not associated with mitosis. Chromatin is present in interphase, cell plate forms in plant cell cytokinesis (telophase), and interphase precedes mitosis.
Hint
This is a structure unique to the first division of meiosis.
