Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What kind of cells are made in MEIOSIS?
A
Haploid cells
B
Diploid Cells
C
Skin Cells
D
Liver Cells
Explanation: 

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: -Haploid gametes are produced during meiosis, which is a type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in a parent diploid cell by half. Some organisms, like algae, have haploid portions of their life cycle.

Detailed explanation-3: -Meiosis involves the division of a diploid (2n) parent cell. The chromosomes are duplicated, but carry out two consecutive divisions. The result is four haploid (n) cells, each with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell due to the separation of homologous pairs in meiosis I.

Detailed explanation-4: -Meiosis is the type of cell division that creates egg and sperm cells.
