Answer: Option C
Solution
Answer: Option C
Solution:
The requirement of Meiosis is a Constant number of chromosomes from one generation to the other.Meiosis, from the Greek word meioun, meaning "to make small," refers to the specialized process by which germ cells divide to produce gametes.
Meiosis ensures that humans have the same number of chromosomes in each generation. Because the chromosome number of a species remains the same from one generation to the next, the chromosome number of germ cells must be reduced by half during meiosis.
