The total DNA content of each daughter cell is reduced during meiosis because:

1. Chromosomes do not replicate during the interphase preceding meiosis I
2. Chromosomes do not replicate between meiosis I and II
3. Half of the chromosomes from each gamete are lost during fertilization
4. Chromosome arms are lost during crossing over
