So stuck on this question PLEASE HELP! Which of the following best describes what happens to a cell's genetic material during the process of meiosis II? A. Sister chromatids are separated from each other to form diploid daughter cells. B. Homologous chromosomes are separated from each other to form diploid daughter cells. C. Sister chromatids are separated from each other to form gametes. D. Homologous chromosomes are separated from each other to form gametes.
A or B, I believe.
I think it may be B. Not sure.
Prophase II marks the beginning of the second meiotic division. Meiosis II is similar to mitosis in that each chromosome consists of two sister chromatids attached at the centromere. The goal of meiosis II is to separate the sister chromatids. http://hihg.med.miami.edu/code/http/modules/education/Design/Print.asp?CourseNum=1&LessonNum=5
