A Correct answer
Explanation

 It is described as the stage where each chromosome breaks into two chromatids forming four chromatids; two paternal and two maternal which are known as tetrads. Chiasma is the site of an exchange of genetic material between the two chromatids. It occurs due to breakage and reunion between the two non-sister chromatids. This process is called genetic recombination.
