Correct Answer: C. Cell division producing haploid gametes or spores
Explanation:
Meiosis includes two nuclear divisions after one DNA replication.
It reduces chromosome number and creates variation.

Correct Answer: C. Homologous chromosomes pair and crossing over may occur
Explanation:
Synapsis forms homologous pairs called bivalents.
Crossing over exchanges DNA between nonsister chromatids.
