Meiosis does not repair DNA, instead it produces copies of itself.
DNA is replicated during the S phase of the cell cycle before both mitosis and meiosis.
During meiosis I, the DNA content is halved as homologous chromosomes separate, leading to haploid daughter cells. In meiosis II, sister chromatids separate without DNA replication, resulting in four haploid daughter cells with the same DNA content as the parent cell before starting meiosis.
DNA replicates once during meiosis. This is why the end result is four haploid cells.
Recombinant DNA is made during the crossing over stage of meiosis, specifically during prophase I. This is when homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material, leading to the formation of new combinations of genes.
A gamete would contain the haploid amount of DNA, which is one complete set of genetic material. During meiosis, DNA is replicated once during S phase but is not copied again between meiosis I and meiosis II, so each gamete ends up with a single set of chromosomes.
DNA replication does not occur during meiosis. Meiosis is a specialized cell division process that involves two rounds of division to produce gametes with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. DNA replication happens during the interphase preceding meiosis.
During meiosis, the amount of DNA is reduced by half in each cell division. This reduction occurs during meiosis I when homologous chromosomes separate, leading to cells with only one set of chromosomes (haploid). This reduction is necessary to ensure that when egg and sperm cells combine during fertilization, the resulting zygote will have the correct amount of DNA.
Telophase is a phase of mitosis. DNA replication must occur before mitosis begins. If it does not then the DNA chromosomes may not be consistent throughout the division of the cells.
During meiosis I, the phase where genetic DNA is copied is called the S phase (synthesis phase) of interphase, which occurs prior to meiosis. During this phase, the chromosomes replicate, resulting in two sister chromatids for each chromosome. Meiosis I then proceeds with the separation of homologous chromosomes, but it does not involve further DNA replication.
None. DNA replication occurs before meiosis I begins.
It happens during interphase of the cell cycle.
During genetic recombination in meiosis, the possible DNA combinations that can result are a mix of genetic material from the two parent cells, leading to new combinations of alleles and variations in the offspring's DNA.
