If 42 chromosomes are present in telophase of Meiosis II, how many chromosomes will be in each daughter cell?
Answer: 21
Explanation
Meiosis II is the second division in the process of meiosis, which reduces the number of chromosomes in a cell by half.
If a cell starts with 42 chromosomes in telophase II, then each daughter cell will have 21 chromosomes
Because meiosis II divides the chromosomes into four haploid cells.
