Attachment 1 is (a)

Attachment 2 is (b)

Attachment 3 is (c) (Rather than 2 chromosomes splitting on each side, make it four on each side)

During prophase I of meiosis, recomination of the chromosomes occur. So draw 16 chromosomes (or 8 pairs.......  kind of like this   ><  ). Colour the > half red and half blue and colour the < half red and half blue:

1st pair: ><
2nd rair: ><
3rd: ><
4th: ><
5th: ><
6th: ><
7th: ><
8th: ><

If you need further assistance, reply back.
