The correct answer is D. It is carried out in cells that are involved in sexual reproduction.

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division in which a mother cell leads to four daughter cells that contain only half of the chromosomes of the original cell and are genetically different from the original cell. Meiosis mainly occurs in cells involved in sexual reproduction in both unicellular and multicellular organisms as this cell division process creates cells with genetic material and half chromosomes (gamete) that can be combined with a gamete from a different parent to create a new organism that contains genetic material of both parents. Thus, the statement that best describes the process of meiosis is "it is carried out in cells that are involved in sexual reproduction".

What is a ligand? what do ligands have to do with receptor-mediated endocytosis?
Volgvan
In biochemistry, aligand is a substance that forms a complex with a biomolecule to serve abiological purpose. In protein-ligandbinding, the ligand is usually a molecule which produces a signal by binding to a site on a target protein.

Receptor mediated endocytosis is an endocytotic mechanism in which specific molecules are ingested into the cell. The specificity results from a receptor-ligand interaction. Receptors on the plasma membrane of the target tissue will specifically bind to ligands on the outside of the cell. An endocytotic process occurs and the ligand is ingested.

A very well studied example of receptor mediated endocytosis involves the metabolism of cholesterol.
