Detailed explanation-1: -So, the correct answer is ‘Meiosis produces gametes that contain one complete haploid set of chromosomes’
Detailed explanation-2: -Which statement correctly describes the end products of meiosis? The end products of meiosis are four gametes, each of which has the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
Detailed explanation-3: -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. In humans, the products of meiosis are sperm or egg cells.
Detailed explanation-4: -Meiosis is used to reduce the number of chromosomes to half in the daughter cells. It occurs only in germinal cells and consists of two stages-meiosis I and meiosis II.
Detailed explanation-5: -Answer and Explanation: The four cells that are produced at the end of meiosis are haploid and genetically unique. Haploid means that each cell only has one copy of each of the chromosomes. This is in contrast to body cells, which are diploid meaning they have two copies of each chromosome.
