In the following questions, a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason (R)
Assertion: Each of the daughter cells has half as many chromosomes or other genetic components as the parent cell in Cytokinesis- I.
Reason: Each daughter cell receives one diploid pair of chromosomes as a result of this first meiotic division (cytokinesis 1).
Both Assertion & Reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
Both Assertion & Reason are true but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
Assertion is true statement but Reason is false.
Both Assertion and Reason are false statements.
Meiosis is a particular form of cell division process in which a single human cell divides twice to give rise to four total daughter cells. Each of the daughter cells has half as many chromosomes or other genetic components as the parent cell. Only gametes or reproductive cells, such as female egg cells and male sperm cells, undergo this sort of cell division. Interphase, Prophase, Anaphase, and Telophase are the four phases of meiosis, in that sequence.
After Telophase I stage, Cytokinesis takes place. In Cytokinesis, each daughter cell receives one haploid pair of chromosomes as a result of this first meiotic division. It creates two daughter cells from the cytoplasm of the original cell. Only one set of chromosomes, or half as many as the original cell's total number, are present in each haploid daughter cell.
Option 4 is the correct answer.
