The daughter cells produced are genetcally identical. A mitosis divides cells, which still contains the same number on chromosomes. In mitosis DNA is replicated once, and the nucleus divides once. In meiosis DNA is replicated once, but the nucleus is divided twice.
The original cell that undergoes meiosis is diploid, meaning it has two sets of chromosomes. The daughter cells produced by meiosis are haploid, containing only one set of chromosomes. Additionally, the original cell undergoes two rounds of cell division to produce four daughter cells, each genetically unique due to crossing over and independent assortment.
Replication occurs during the S phase of the cell cycle before both mitosis and meiosis. In mitosis, the replicated DNA is separated into two identical daughter cells. In meiosis, the replicated DNA is separated into four haploid daughter cells with genetic variation.
Meiosis consists of two main phases: meiosis I and meiosis II. Meiosis I involves the separation of homologous chromosomes, resulting in two haploid daughter cells. Meiosis II involves the separation of sister chromatids, producing a total of four haploid daughter cells with unique genetic combinations.
Meiosis is a cell division process that reduces the chromosome number by half, resulting in the production of haploid gametes. It involves two rounds of cell division, meiosis I and meiosis II, which separate homologous chromosomes and sister chromatids to create four genetically different haploid cells.
Parent cells are diploids, and daughter cells are haploids. Therefore, the daughter cells have half of the the number of chromosomes as the parent cells. (chromosomes are DNA)
Homologous chromosomes assort independently, so each gamete has a unique combination of alleles
NovaNet/GradPoint answer: four haploid daughter cellsMeiosis 2 creates a total of 4 haploid daughter cells from an original 2 daughter cells (created during meiosis 1). Each daughter cell has a completely different set of DNA than the 2 daughter cells created in meiosis 1, as well as the original parent cells.

During meiosis I, the DNA content is halved as homologous chromosomes separate, leading to haploid daughter cells. In meiosis II, sister chromatids separate without DNA replication, resulting in four haploid daughter cells with the same DNA content as the parent cell before starting meiosis.

Meiosis produces gametes, which are reproductive cells such as sperm and egg cells.
Yes, the parent cell in meiosis is diploid because it undergoes DNA replication before entering meiosis, resulting in two copies of each chromosome. In mitosis, the parent cell is also diploid but does not undergo DNA replication specifically for the purpose of meiosis.
