Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half, resulting in the production of gametes.
Recognize that meiosis consists of two sequential stages: Meiosis I and Meiosis II.
In Meiosis I, homologous chromosomes are separated, resulting in two haploid cells from one diploid cell.
In Meiosis II, the sister chromatids in each of the two haploid cells are separated, leading to the formation of four haploid gametes.
Conclude that from one diploid cell, a total of four gametes are produced after both Meiosis I and Meiosis II.
