Detailed explanation-1: -At the conclusion of meiosis, there are four haploid daughter cells that go on to develop into either sperm or egg cells.
Detailed explanation-2: -Sexually reproducing organisms are diploid (having two sets of chromosomes, one from each parent). In humans, only the egg and sperm cells are haploid.
Detailed explanation-3: -Mitosis produces two genetically identical diploid cells, whereas meiosis produces four non-identical haploid cells.
