Answer

**C.) 2 diploid cells are produced during Meiosis II** does NOT describe a step in meiosis.<br /><br />Meiosis results in four haploid cells, not two diploid cells. Meiosis I separates homologous chromosomes, resulting in two haploid cells with duplicated chromosomes (sister chromatids). Meiosis II then separates the sister chromatids, resulting in four haploid cells with single chromosomes.<br />
