Question
how many cell divisions occur during meiosis?
one
two
three
four
Meiosis is a type of cell division that occurs in sexually - reproducing organisms. It consists of two rounds of division. The first round is meiosis I, which includes prophase I (where homologous chromosomes pair and exchange genetic material), metaphase I (homologous chromosomes align at the cell's equator), anaphase I (homologous chromosomes separate), and telophase I. The second round is meiosis II, which is similar to mitosis and includes prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II (sister chromatids separate), and telophase II. These two divisions result in the formation of four haploid cells from a single diploid cell.
