Answer:

Meiosis.

Explanation:

Meiosis may be defined as a type of cell division in which a single parent cell divides into four daughter cells. This cell division brings genetic variation in the gametes.

Meiosis generally occurs in the sex cells. The organism with 12 chromosomes produce four daughter cells, as in meiosis four daughter cells are produced. The chromosomes number of daughter cells are 6, the cells shows reduction division in which chromosomes number reduces to half. Meiosis is also known as reduction division.

Thus, the correct answer is option (4).

Hairpins often form at palindromic sequences in single strands of either rna or dna. however, several key features differentiate
AlekseyPX
Hairpin like structures are formed in both DNA and RNA but are common in RNA than in DNA. This is because DNA can be double stranded or single stranded while RNA is generally single stranded structure that can be double stranded only when it forms a hair pin like structure.
The features of hairpin structure in RNA are as follows:
1. This structure is a building block of many secondary structures of RNA.
2. The termination sequence during transcription also forms a hairpin loop like structure.
3. tRNA also forms a hairpin loop like structure and helps in the process of translation.
