Question

Which of the following does NOT commonly happen to chromosomes during meiosis II?

Chromosomes line up one-by-one across the middle of the cell

The number of chromosomes per cell is cut in half

Sister chromatids are separated

Chromosomes end up in cells that are haploid

Nuclear envelopes re-form around groups of chromosomes

Nuclear envelopes re-form around groups of chromosomes

Explanation / Answer

The number of chromosomes per cell is cut in half. This does not happen as this has already happened in meiosis I where the chromosome pairs were reduced to half of the original number. In meiosis II only the sister chromatids separate.
