The main characteristics of meiosis are as follows:
(i) Meiosis involves two sequential cycles of nuclear and cell division called meiosis-I and meiosis-II but only a single cycle of DNA replication.
(ii) Meiosis-I is initiated after the parental chromosomes have replicated to produce identical sister chromatids at the S phase.
(iii) Meiosis involves pairing of homologous chromosomes and recombination between non- sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes.
(iv) Four haploid cells are formed at the end of meiosis- IL
