Shortening of microtubules attached to kinetochores takes place in the following stages of meiosis
A. Anaphase II
B. Diakinesis
C. Telophase I
D. Anaphase I
In Anaphase I, the shortening of microtubules attached to kinetochores of bivalents helps in separation of homologous chromosome of bivalent. In Anaphase II, shortening of microtubules attached to kinetochores helps in division of centromere and separation of sister chromatids towards respective poles.
