Meiosis ::

Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half in daughter cells, creating four haploid cells, each genetically distinct from the parent cell that gave rise to them.

Why it is called as Reduction Division ::

1. As the Meiosis division process involves in reduction of chromosome number in the daughter cells to half the number in the parent cell, this process is called Reduction Division.
Meiosis creates gametes (egg and sperm cells).

2. The resulting gametes have 23 new chromosomes, one member of each of the 23 pairs, representing unique combinations of the original maternal and paternal copies.

ddNTPs - Dideoxynucleotides and abbreviated as ddNTPs.

They are chain-elongating inhibitors of DNA polymerase, used in the Sanger method for DNA sequencing.

They have a hydrogen at the 3’ carbon of the ribose sugar.
