MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -As soon as the cytoplasm divides, meiosis is complete. There are now four daughter cells-two from each of the two cells that entered meiosis II-and each daughter cell has half the normal number of chromosomes (Figure 7).

Detailed explanation-2: -Telophase II: During telophase II, cell division begins again in each of the two daughter cells, creating 4 daughter cells. Each of these 4 daughter cells contains 23 chromosomes, making them haploid, and none of the 4 is exactly alike (due to crossing over and independent assortment).

Detailed explanation-3: -Telophase I results in the production of two nonidentical daughter cells, each of which has half the number of chromosomes of the original parent cell. Telophase I results in the production of two nonidentical daughter cells, each of which has half the number of chromosomes of the original parent cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.
