Question

The four daughter cells produced at the end of meiosis are?

• A. Without nucleus
• B. Genetically identical to the parent cell
• C. Genetically dissimilar to the parent cell
  
• D. With four nuclei

Answer 1

The correct option is C Genetically dissimilar to the parent cell

• During meiosis, one cell divides twice to form four different daughter cells. These cells have only half the number of chromosomes of the parent. That is, they are haploid.
• Meiosis produces gametes (eggs in females and sperm in the male). The four daughter cells produced are genetically dissimilar to the parent cell because the parent cell is always diploid while daughter cells are haploid in nature.

So the correct option is C
