The true statements about meiosis are:

  1. There are 23 chromosomes in each new cell at the end of the process.
  2. It occurs twice
  3. It provides genetic diversity

MEIOSIS:

  • Meiosis is a kind of cell division that produces four daughter cells that have their chromosome number reduced by half.

  • Meiosis is employed by sexually reproducing organisms to create gametes (sperm and egg). In humans, each gamete has 23 chromosomes i.e. 46 chromosomes ÷ 2 = 23.

  • Meiosis occurs in a two step division process namely meiosis I and meiosis II. Meiosis I produces 2 daughter cells while meiosis II produces 4 daughter cells.

  • Due to the exchange of chromosomes that occur in the prophase stage of meiosis, there is genetic diversity among daughter cells produced in meiosis.

Therefore; the true statements about meiosis are:

  1. There are 23 chromosomes in each new cell at the end of the process.
  2. It occurs twice
  3. It provides genetic diversity
