Summary: At the end of meiosis, 4 daughter cells are formed = eggs or sperm. Each contains half as many chromosomes as the parent cell (n); each cell is genetically different from its parents and from its siblings. Fertilization of an egg by a sperm restores the chromosome number to 2n.
A pound has 16 ounces. A quarter of a pound is 4oz, so three quarters of a pound is 12oz. Erica Harrison.
The equivalent of 1/4 cup in ounces is 2 ounces. There are 8 ounces in a cup. Four tablespoons equals a 1/4 cup, as does 12 teaspoons. One stick of butter or margarine (1/4 pound) is 1/2 cup, so one-half of a stick of butter is 1/4 cup.
