How does the number of chromosomes at the end of meiosis compare to the number at the beginning?
It's homicide.
What process takes meiosis this reduced set number and returns it to match the original set number of the parent cell?
Fertilization of the egg by the sperm. The resulting cell is a zygote, which contains the same number of chromosomes as a normal body cell for that species. For example, in humans, sperm cells have 1 set of 23 chromosomes, as do egg cells. So when they unite in fertilization, the zygote will have 2 sets of 23 chromosomes, for a total of 46.
How did meiosis explain Mendel's results?
Mendel's laws and meiosis provide the foundation for heredity.
What major events occur in telophase?
Telophase occur in both mitosis and meiosis. During telophase nuclear membrane and nuclei reforms and in meiosis it further goes for meiosis 2 which is same as mitosis
Why is prophase of meiosis sub-headed with a roman numeral 1?
The Roman numeral I is used to sub-head prophase of meiosis to indicate that it is the first stage of meiosis. Meiosis is a two-step cell division process that consists of meiosis I and meiosis II. By using Roman numerals, the sub-headings help to clearly distinguish between the two stages and show the sequential order in which they occur.
