The correct answer is B. Meiosis.
Mitosis is a type of cell division that results in two identical daughter cells. Meiosis is a type of cell division that results in four daughter cells, each with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Gametes are sex cells, such as sperm and eggs. They are produced by meiosis.
A. Mitosis is a type of cell division that results in two identical daughter cells. In mitosis, the parent cell’s DNA is replicated, and then the cell divides into two daughter cells, each with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Mitosis is the process by which most cells in the body divide.
B. Meiosis is a type of cell division that results in four daughter cells, each with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. In meiosis, the parent cell’s DNA is replicated, and then the cell divides twice, resulting in four daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Meiosis is the process by which gametes (sex cells) are produced.
C. Both A & B is not the correct answer because mitosis and meiosis are two different types of cell division. Mitosis results in two identical daughter cells, while meiosis results in four daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
D. None of the above is not the correct answer because gametes are produced by meiosis.
