Question
what is the final result of meiosis?
-4 genetically different diploid cells
4 genetically different haploid cells
4 genetically identical haploid cells
4 genetically identical diploid cells
Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half, resulting in the formation of gametes (sex cells). Diploid cells (with two sets of chromosomes) undergo meiosis. Through processes like crossing - over and independent assortment during meiosis, genetic variation is introduced. The final result is 4 haploid cells (with a single set of chromosomes) that are genetically different from each other and from the parent cell.
