How many cells does meiosios produce and are they genetically identical?

Meiosis will produce a total of 4 cells and no, they are genetically unique. In meiosis, a critical step called "crossing over" (or chromosomal crossover) takes place which exchanges genetic material of paired chromosomes. This increases genetics diversity. Also, at the end of meiosis, each daughter cell at the end will have HALF of the original number of chromosomes as the parent cell. That is why in humans, cells have 46 chromosomes but sperm and ovum cell only have 23.
