Detailed explanation-1: -The resulting cells from meiosis are not genetically identical because of the recombination of genes that occurred during prophase 1. Sex cells in humans are produced by meiosis. In males, all four child cells are sperms while in females, one child cell is an egg and the other 3 are polar bodies.

Detailed explanation-2: -Meiosis is used to produce only one type of cell, and those are the gametes. During meiosis, a diploid cell divides to produce four, non-identical haploid daughter cells, each containing a single set of chromosomes. In humans, these are sperm and egg cells. Unlike mitosis, meiosis involves two rounds of cell division.

Detailed explanation-3: -The gametes produced in meiosis are all haploid, but they’re not genetically identical.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.
