Definitions:

Diploid

An organism or cell having two complete sets of chromosomes, typically one set from each parent.

Prophase I

The first stage of meiosis I where chromosomes condense, pair up, and exchange genetic material through crossing over, essential for genetic diversity.

Homologous Chromosomes

Pairs of chromosomes in a diploid organism that are similar in size, shape, and gene content, one inherited from each parent.

Sister Chromatids

Sister chromatids are two identical copies of a single replicated chromosome that are connected by a centromere and eventually separated during cell division.
