Common mistake

Misunderstanding Meiosis Divisions

Students often think that meiosis involves only one cell division instead of two, leading to confusion about the number of gametes produced.

Emphasize that meiosis consists of two distinct divisions: meiosis I and meiosis II, which together result in four gametes, each containing a single set of chromosomes.
