Question

Early prophase in mitosis is called: A. Leptotene B. Leptotene C. Leptotene D. Laptotene
Options
A Leptotene
Correct Answer
B Leptotene
C Leptotene
D Laptotene
Correct Answer

Option A is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Leptotene is the first stage of prophase I in meiosis, not a stage of mitotic prophase. Mitotic prophase is not subdivided into stages like meiosis. This question seems to have a typo, as all options are essentially the same, but Leptotene is a meiotic substage.

Hint

This term is actually part of meiosis I, not mitosis.
