At the end of meiosis II, how does the DNA in each of the four new cells compare to the DNA from the original cell?. A)half as m
uch and genetically the same as the original. B)twice as much and genetically the same as the original. C)half as much and genetically different from the original. D)twice as much and genetically different from the original.
<span>At the end of meiosis II, compared to the DNA from the original cell, the DNA in each of the four new cells is C)half as much and genetically different from the original. Meiosis is the type of cell division in which the genetic material is reduced by half. Thus, choices B and D are incorrect. Further, the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes so-called the crossover occurs during meiosis, so DNA in new cells will be genetically different from the original DNA. Thus, the correct choice is C.</span>
