alleryA diploid cell with 2n = 8 undergoes meiosis. Number of chromosomes in each daughter cell after meiosis II completion:
A4 (haploid, n)
B2
C8
D16
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. 4 (haploid, n)
2n = 8 → n = 4. Meiosis I: reduces to 4 chromosomes per cell (each with 2 chromatids).
**Meiosis II:** separates sister chromatids
→ each daughter has 4 chromosomes (1 chromatid each).
4 haploid cells per diploid starting cell.
