The answer is letter C. fertilization.
Meiosis reduces the chromosome number from diploid (2n) to haploid (n).
<span>During fertilization like that of human somatic cells which has 46 number of diploid chromosomes, a haploid sperm cell and a haploid egg cell combine to form a diploid zygote. Each parent contributes 23 number of chromosomes to the offspring which makes the total of 46 chromosomes. Since meiosis halves the chromosome number but the diploid condition is restored during fertilization</span>

<u>Answer:</u>
In ecology, catastrophes permanently alter the physical structure of the existing environment.
<u>Explanation:</u>
- The ecological disturbances include flood, strom, plague, fires, earthquakes, tsunami, volcanic eruptions, climatic change and impact of humans on the environment like deforestation ,nuclear testing etc.
- These factors can have a visible impact on the structure of the earth and permanently alter the environment.
- The visible effects of these disturbances are global warming, extinction of selective species, change in the course of rivers, submergence of coastal areas, sudden movement of the tectonic plates and formation of sudden cracks on the earth's crust.
