Question

unit 2.3 cell cycle, mitosis, meiosis quiz 2025
which statement is true of meiosis?
meiosis results in 4 haploid cells
homologous pairs rejoin in telophase 2
dna is duplicated prior to meiosis i and again prior to meiosis ii
the sister chromatids separate in metaphase i

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell - division that results in four haploid daughter cells. Homologous pairs separate in anaphase I and do not rejoin in telophase 2. DNA is replicated only once, before meiosis I. Sister chromatids separate in anaphase II, not metaphase I.

Answer:

Meiosis results in 4 haploid cells
