Answered by maham237 @


The right answer is D.

Meiosis consists of two successive cell divisions that will give birth to gametes.

After the meiosis, the original cell gave birth to four haploid cells whose genomes were recombined in a unique way.

In humans, the cells that will participate in meiosis are spermatocytes and oocytes.

In the cells that will enter into meiosis, the replication of A.D.N. occurred during interphase, each chromosome consists of 2 chromatids connected by their centromere. (Each chromatide is formed of a double-stranded A.D.N molecule and molecules that maintain its structure)
