Meiosis is different from the process shown because, during meiosis,
A) chromosomes are not replicated.
B) two gametes are made for every original cell.
C) four gametes are produced for every original cell.
D) four somatic cells are produced for every original cell.

Meiosis is a type of cell division that occurs during the process of formation of gamete ( that are haploid, reproductive cells such as eggs and sperms) particularly in case of organisms that perform sexual reproduction.

During this process, a diploid parent cell produces four haploid cells (gametes or sex cells) through two rounds of cell division ( that are meiosis I and meiosis II).

This is also known as reductional cell division. Thus, four gametes are produced for every original cell.

Therefore, option C) is the right answer.

Meiosis is different from the process shown because, during meiosis, A) chromosomes are not replicated. B) two gametes are made for every original cell. C) four gametes are produced for every original cell. D) four somatic cells are produced for every original cell.
