Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Meiosis is the process of cell division that results in production of haploid cells called gametes. Thus, the correct answer is A) gametes and B) haploid cells. Therefore, the best choice is D) both A and B. Meiosis involves segregation and recombination of genetic material, and results in a reduction in the number of chromosomes from diploid (2n) to haploid (n) in the gametes. The products of meiosis are not made only of autosomes, as they also consist of sex chromosomes (X and Y).
