Meiosis is also known as reductional division. It is the type of cell division where the parent cell's half of its chromosomes are reduced. Meiosis is a division that converts a diploid cell (two sets of chromosomes) to a haploid cell (one set of chromosomes). As a result, the parent cell's chromosomal count is reduced by half during meiosis.
What stage of meiosis reduces chromosome number?
The first round of nuclear division that occurs during the formation of gametes is called meiosis I. It is also known as the reduction division because it results in cells that have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
What stage of meiosis do cells become haploid?
The haploid transition of the daughter cells occurs during telophase II of meiosis. DNA is copied during S phase just before meiosis. The parent cell has 92 chromosomes following S phase since human cells typically have 46 chromosomes.
