MCQ on Meiosis

Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces gametes (sperm and egg cells) in sexually reproducing organisms. It involves two rounds of division, resulting in four daughter cells with half the chromosome number of the parent cell, enabling genetic diversity. This is an MCQ on Meiosis.
