Understand that meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half, resulting in the production of gametes or spores.
Recall that meiosis consists of two consecutive divisions: meiosis I and meiosis II.
In meiosis I, homologous chromosomes are separated into two different cells. This is the reductional division.
In meiosis II, the sister chromatids are separated, similar to mitosis, resulting in four genetically distinct daughter cells.
Therefore, at the end of meiosis, four daughter cells are produced, each with half the number of chromosomes as the original cell.
