MITOSIS AND MEIOSIS

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What stage of meiosis? Nuclear membrane forms around each set of chromatids which are called chromosomes, the cytoplasm divides and 4 haploid daughter cells form, each cell has half the number of chromosomes as the original cell.
A
telophase1
B
telophase 2
C
interphase
D
cytokinesis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In anaphase II, the sister chromatids separate and are pulled towards opposite poles of the cell. In telophase II, nuclear membranes form around each set of chromosomes, and the chromosomes decondense.

Detailed explanation-2: -There are two divisions in meiosis; the first division is meiosis I: the number of cells is doubled but the number of chromosomes is not. This results in 1/2 as many chromosomes per cell. The second division is meiosis II: this division is like mitosis; the number of chromosomes does not get reduced.

Detailed explanation-3: -4. Anaphase I: The pair of chromosomes are then pulled apart by the meiotic spindle, which pulls one chromosome to one pole of the cell and the other chromosome to the opposite pole.

Detailed explanation-4: -Telophase II and Cytokinesis Nuclear envelopes form around the chromosomes. Cytokinesis separates the two cells into four unique haploid cells. At this point, the newly formed nuclei are both haploid.

Detailed explanation-5: -Anaphase II: During anaphase II of meiosis, the centromeres divide and sister chromatids separate, at which time they are referred to as non-replicated chromosomes. Spindle fibers move chromosomes to each pole. In all, 23 chromosomes move to each pole.
