Question

What is the product of meiosis 2

Answer 1

In contrast to a mitotic division, which yields two identical diploid daughter cells, the end result of meiosis is haploid daughter cells with chromosomal combinations different from those originally present in the parent. In sperm cells, four haploid gametes are produced.

Answer 2

Total four genetically different daughter cells are formed by single parent cell by the end of meiosis 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Meiosis II is the second division of meiosis. Meiosis I forms two daughter cells which enter the meiosis II. By the end of meiosis II, four daughter cells are formed.

Separation of homologous chromosomes to opposite poles during anaphase I reduce the chromosome number in the daughter cells by half. And crossing over the event of meiosis I also add new gene combinations to these cells.

hence, if a parent cell with 46 chromosomes enters the meiosis, by the end of meiosis II, a total of four daughter cells are produced. Each of them will have 23 chromosomes only. These cells will also have some new gene combinations.
