Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The end result of meiosis in animals is four haploid cells. Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half, resulting in the formation of haploid cells. In animals, meiosis occurs in the gonads (testes or ovaries) and produces gametes (sperm or eggs), which are haploid cells that fuse during fertilization to form a diploid zygote. Therefore, option D, four haploid cells, is the correct answer.
