Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Meiosis and mitosis are different. Meiosis occurs in gamete-producing cells. Meiosis is essentially happens in two stages, with the first stage producing 2 cells and then those 2 cells each producing 2 cells, making the net result 4. The chromosomes are divided, creating genetically different daughter cells.
