Answer:
B
Explanation:
A cannot be true as photosynthesis requires carbon dioxide and water and uses light energy to break bonds and form oxygen and glucose
C cannot be true as chloroplasts contain chlorophyll which gives the cell its green colour by not absorbing green wavelengths of white light

The missed cells would die
Answer:
Mitosis:
Mitosis has 4 stages total and produces 2 diploid daughter cells. The purpose of mitosis is for cellular proliferation. Since we only get 2 daughter cells, the chromosome number remains the same and generic variation doesn't occur.
Meiosis:
Meiosis has 8 stages total and produces 4 haploid daughter cells. In the shortest nutshell, meiosis is mitosis but twice. The purpose of meiosis is sexual reproduction. Since we get 4 daughter cells, the chromosome number is halved and generic variation does occur.
