Meiosis 2: Chromosome and Chromatid Count Confusion

[Ryan1983]

Homework Statement

A somatic mouse cell has 40 chromosomes, I know for meiosis 1 (prophase-telophase) it has 40 chromosomes and 80 chromatids. For meiosis 2 however I get confused. For prophase 2- telophase 2 would it then have 40 chromosomes and 160 chromatids? Thank you!
