After meiosis II, which of the following is true about the cells that are produced?

• Four cells are produced. They are identical to each other and each contains half the number of chromosomes that the parent cell has.
• Four cells are produced. Each is unique and contains half the number of chromosomes that the parent cell has.
• Four cells are produced. Each is unique and contains the same number of chromosomes that the parent cell has.
• Two cells are produced. Each is unique and contains the same number of chromosomes that the parent cell has.
