Meiosis is a process which involves 2 times of cellular division. Each time, chromosomal volume is being halved.

If at first, cell starts with 4 chromosomes ( x x x x ), after the first division which results in 2 daughter cells, each cell will have 2 chromosomes ( x x ), since homologous chromosomes pair up in Meiosis I ( xx xx ), and each pair is broken at Anaphase I.

During Meiosis II ( x x ), sister chromatids are broken at Anaphase II. Each resulting cell will only have 2 chromosomes ( < > ).

So, if you want to check, there will be 4 daughter cells from a single cell after meiosis has occurred. Each daughter cell will have 2 chromosomes ( < > ). At first, there were 4 chromosomes in total ( x x x x ), now, there are ( < > ) ( < > ) ( < > ) ( < > ).

Each bracket ( ... ) represents a cell

Hope this helps!

Agar is an important component of media because A. bacteria require agar to grow.
Alik [6]

C. Agar provides a solid surface for bacterial growth.

Agar is a substance obtained from red algae which when added to a culture media, provides a solid surface for the growth of bacteria. When the agar is not added then the culture media remains as the broth and when the agar is added then the broth gets solidified.

Agar is added 1.5-2% in the broth to get solidified. The growth of the bacteria depends on the amount of agar added. Agar is used for the growth of bacteria because it has gel like properties which holds the nutrients evenly and the bacteria can use it accordingly.
