MITOSIS AND MEIOSIS

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Haploid cells are formed during telophase 2 ____
A
True, and it is the last stage in MITOSIS
B
True, and it is the last stage in MEIOSIS
C
False
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Telophase II The spindle disintegrates, and the chromosomes recoil, forming chromatin. A nuclear envelope forms around each haploid chromosome set, before cytokinesis occurs, forming two daughter cells from each parent cell, or four haploid daughter cells in total.

Detailed explanation-3: -At the end of telophase II there will be four individual cells (either sperm cells or eggs) entirely separated with the nuclear membranes fully formed. This is the end of meiosis.

Detailed explanation-4: -At the conclusion of meiosis, there are four haploid daughter cells that go on to develop into either sperm or egg cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -Telophase I and Cytokinesis: The spindle breaks down, and new nuclear membranes form. The cytoplasm of the cell divides, and two haploid daughter cells result. The daughter cells each have a random assortment of chromosomes, with one from each homologous pair. Both daughter cells go on to meiosis II.
