Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -(A) Fertilization induces the transition from metaphase II to anaphase II, leading to completion of oocyte meiosis and emission of a second polar body (which usually degenerates).
Detailed explanation-2: -Meiosis only occurs in reproductive cells, as the goal is to create haploid gametes that will be used in fertilization. Meiosis is important to, but not the same as, sexual reproduction. Meiosis is necessary for sexual reproduction to occur, as it results in the formation of gametes (sperm and eggs).
