Question

which statement is true about meiosis ii?
in the process, daughter cells are identical copies of the parent cell.
dna replication occurs between meiosis i and meiosis ii.
during metaphase ii, homologous chromosomes line up in the center of the cell.
it is complete when there are four haploid daughter cells, each different from each other and different from the parent cell.

Explanation:

• Meiosis II produces haploid cells (not identical to parent, unlike mitosis).
• No DNA replication between meiosis I and II.
• Metaphase II aligns sister chromatids, not homologous chromosomes.
• Meiosis II completes with 4 genetically distinct haploid cells.

Answer:

It is complete when there are four haploid daughter cells, each different from each other and different from the parent cell.
