Answer 1

The correct answer is B It occurs before an organism can sexully reproduce.

Step-by-step explanation:

Meiosis is a specific type of cell division resulting in the formation of 4 haploid cells.Meiosis helps an organism to prepare itself for reproduction.

Meiosis occur during both spermatogenesis and oogenesis resulting in the formation of haploid sperm through spermatogenesis and haploid ovum by oogenesis.

The haploid sperm and haploid ovum fuse with each other to form a diploid zygote.
