At the end of meiosis II, the DNA in each of the four new cells compared to the DNA from the original cell is half as much and genetically different from the original. Meiosis is a part of cell division that results in the reduction of chromosome number by half in daughter cells. So, all daughter cells will have as half as much the original cell have. Nonetheless, during meiosis, the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes occur. So, all daughter cells are genetically different from the original cell.
