Detailed explanation-1: -In meiosis, a single cell divides twice to produce four daughter cells. These daughter cells or sex cells have exactly half the genetic material of normal gametes. Meiosis necessitates two divisions since it produces a haploid cell with half the amount of chromosomes. Thus meiosis occurs twice.

Detailed explanation-2: -Like mitosis, meiosis also has distinct stages called prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. A key difference, however, is that during meiosis, each of these phases occurs twice-once during the first round of division, called meiosis I, and again during the second round of division, called meiosis II.

Detailed explanation-3: -That means there is a prophase I and a prophase 2.

Detailed explanation-4: -Meiosis goes through PMAT twice!

Detailed explanation-5: -During each meiotic cell division, the same processes of prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase (P.M.A.T.) occur, with some variation between them.
