Summary Introduction

To determine:

The process of production of four haploid cells from one diploid cell by the process of meiosis I, meiosis II, and cytokinesis.

Introduction:

Meiosis is a reductional division that occurs in the germs cells of eukaryotes. The diploid germ cells divide to form haploid gametes (n) during sexual reproduction. The process of meiosis plays an important role in the maintenance of chromosome number in the zygote.
