Identify the correct statement regarding meiosis amongst the following:

I: Meiosis involves two sequential cycles of nuclear and cell divisions but only a single cycle of DNA replication.
II: Meiosis II is initiated after the parental chromosomes have replicated to produce identical sister chromatids at the S phase.
III: Meiosis involves pairing of bivalents and recombinations between them.
