Answer: C. meiosis produces sex cells that are joined during sexual reproduction to produce offspring
Step-by-step explanation:
Meiosis is also called as reduction division in this the parent diploid cell divides twice to produce four haploid daughter cells. The daughter cells so produce after cell division contain half the number of chromosomes then that of the parent cells. The germ cells in males and females divide twice or meiotic division occurs in them twice to produce four daughter haploid gamete cells that are sperms (male) and ovum (oocyte) (female). These male and female gametes fuse during sexual reproduction. The sperm fertilizes an ovum to produce zygote.
