Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During prophase I of spermatogenesis, the homologous chromosomes pair up. This results in a structure known as a bivalent or tetrad, which contains four chromatids (two from each homologous chromosome). Since there are 23 pairs of homologous chromosomes in humans, the total number of chromatids in prophase I is 92 (4 x 23).
