It has half the amount of DNA as the cell that began meiosis. b. It has the same number of chromosomes but each of them has different alleles than another cell form the same meiosis. c. If has half the chromosomes but twice the DNA of the originating cell. d. It is identical in content to another cell form the same meiosis. e. It has twice the amount of DNA as the parent cell.
