During spermatogenesis, why does the chromosome no of the 4 daughter cells produced by the meiotic division of the secondary spermatocyte is same as that of the secondary spermatocyte? Because during meiosis chromosome no reduces to half.

Meosis has 2 steps Meosis 1 and Meosis 2...
First meosis is considered as Reductional Devision... means in first meosis.. number of chromosomes will reduces to half(from 2n to n) while Meosis 2 is considered as equational devision or you can that it is same as Mitosis.. so the final product of Meosis 1 has 'n' number of chromosome.. and that why here at the end of Meosis 2 the chromosome number will remail same as 'n' .. but if you see the whole process together then you will find that the total number of Chromosomes in Final daughter cell are exatly half of the Initial parent cell.
