Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The second meiotic division results in four haploid gametes, each with half the number of chromosomes as the original cell. The chromosomes are not in tetrad form as they were in the first meiotic division. Option A is incorrect because the daughter cells produced in meiosis II are not identical to each other. Option B refers to the result of the first meiotic division, not the second. Option D is incorrect because the daughter cells produced in meiosis II are haploid, not diploid.
