Question

The main difference between meiosis I and meiosis II is that __ in meiosis II.
A) cytokinesis is not involved
B) the nuclei do not divide
C) no spindle fibers form
D) no new DNA is created

Answer 1

The answer is NO NEW DNA IS CREATED .

Answer 2

Answer:

D) no new DNA is created

Explanation:

DNA replication is a process which occurs during interphase of cell cycle. Meiosis II occurs after meiosis I and after meiosis I no interphase exists. So due to the absence of interphase before meiosis II, DNA replication does not take place or in simple words "no new DNA is created". Meiosis II is a bit different than meiosis I because in meiosis II haploids are generated by segregation of sister chromatids in contrast to meiosis I in which homologous chromosomes segregate instead of sister chromatids.
