Understand that meiosis consists of two consecutive divisions: meiosis I and meiosis II, starting from one diploid germ cell.
Recall that meiosis I is a reductional division where homologous chromosomes separate, resulting in two haploid cells, each with duplicated chromosomes.
Recognize that meiosis II is an equational division similar to mitosis, where sister chromatids separate, doubling the number of cells from meiosis I.
Calculate the total number of daughter cells after meiosis II by multiplying the number of cells after meiosis I by 2, since each of the two haploid cells divides again.
Conclude that the final product of meiosis II from one diploid germ cell is four haploid daughter cells.
