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: -Meiosis is the production of four genetically diverse haploid daughter cells from one diploid parent cell. Meiosis can only occur in eukaryotic organisms.
Detailed explanation-3: -Telophase II: During telophase II, cell division begins again in each of the two daughter cells, creating 4 daughter cells. Each of these 4 daughter cells contains 23 chromosomes, making them haploid, and none of the 4 is exactly alike (due to crossing over and independent assortment).
Detailed explanation-4: -In telophase II, nuclear membranes form around each set of chromosomes, and the chromosomes decondense. Cytokinesis splits the chromosome sets into new cells, forming the final products of meiosis: four haploid cells in which each chromosome has just one chromatid.
Detailed explanation-5: -Both haploid and diploid cells can undergo mitosis. When a haploid cell undergoes mitosis, it produces two genetically identical haploid daughter cells; when a diploid cell undergoes mitosis, it produces two genetically identical diploid daughter cells.
