true or false

By dividing twice, the original parent diploid cell is able to produce 4 haploid gametes is a true statement.

Explanation:

In order to maintain the constancy of chromosomes present in a species, the cells undergo cell division meiosis.

Through meiosis, the cells divide twice, to divide the diploid parent cell (2n – two sets of chromosomes) and form four haploid daughter cells. This is followed by replication of chromosomes.

After meiosis and subsequent replication, each of these haploid cells (n) will have a fixed haploid number of chromosomes (23 homologous pairs).

This happens only to the gametes in the reproductive organs so that the genetic information stored in the parent cells are transferred to the daughter cells.

a unit of heredity that is transferred from a parent to offspring and is held to determine some characteristic of the offspring.
