A
10
B
6
C
4
D
2
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The process results in four daughter cells that are haploid, which means they contain half the number of chromosomes of the diploid parent cell. Meiosis has both similarities to and differences from mitosis, which is a cell division process in which a parent cell produces two identical daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Meiosis is a process where a single cell divides twice to produce four cells containing half the original amount of genetic information. These cells are our sex cells – sperm in males, eggs in females.

Detailed explanation-3: -Per division, mitosis produces two daughter cells. 16 cells are formed during the third division, while 32 cells are created during the fourth division.
