Question

After telophase I of meiosis, the chromosomal makeup of each daughter cell is a. tetraploid, and the chromosomes are each composed of two chromatids. b. haploid, and the chromosomes are each composed of two chromatids. c. diploid, and the chromosomes are each composed of two chromatids. d. diploid, and the chromosomes are each composed of a single chromatid. e. haploid, and the chromosomes are each composed of a single chromatid.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-B.

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division which proceeds in two stages: meiosis I and meiosis II and result in the formation of four daughter cells.

The meiosis I is known as the reductional division as two daughter cells are formed with reduced ploidy level that is haploid cells from diploid cells.  The cells formed contains chromosomes with two chromatids as the DNA amount gets doubled after the DNA synthesis.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.
