Question

when the first stage of meiosis ends, what is true about the results?
there are two haploid daughter cells that are genetically different
there are two diploid daughter cells that are genetically different
there are two haploid daughter cells that are genetically identical
there are two diploid daughter cells that are genetically identical

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Meiosis I (first stage of meiosis) starts with a diploid cell. After homologous chromosomes separate, the resulting two daughter cells have half the number of chromosomes (haploid) and are genetically different due to crossing over and independent assortment. So the correct option is the one stating two haploid, genetically different daughter cells.

Answer:

there are two haploid daughter cells that are genetically different
