Question

The process of cell division that creates sex cells in sexually reproducing organisms is called

Answer 1

Answer: The correct answer is -

C. meiosis.

Explanation:

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

During this process, a diploid parent cell gives 4 haploid daughter cells (gametes) through two rounds of cell division that are meiosis I and meiosis II.

Thus, option C) is the right answer m

Answer 2

The answer is "Meiosis".
 
Meiosis is a cell division process which forms four daughter cells which are different from parent cell. Formed daughter cells have half of chromosomes when compared to parent cells. Hence, Daughter cells are haploid (have single set of chromosomes). This process occurs in the sexually reproductive organisms and formed daughter cells can be either sperms or egg cells according to the gender of living being.
