A child more strongly resembles the maternal grandmother than the maternal grandfather. One explanation could be due to random chromosome alignment during which stage of the mother's gamete formation?

A) prophase I
B) metaphase I
C) telophase I
D) metaphase II
E) anaphase II

Random Chromosome Alignment

The process during meiosis where chromosomes arrange themselves randomly at the equatorial plate, which contributes to genetic variation.

Maternal Grandmother

The mother of one's mother, a key family member often involved in the upbringing and cultural transmission within families.

Gamete Formation

The process of producing gametes (sperm and eggs) through meiosis, involving the halving of the number of chromosomes.
