• B. i) $\to$ d,e, $\&$ f. ii) $\to$ a,b, $\&$ c.
• C. i) $\to$ a,c, $\&$ f. ii).$\to$ b,d, $\&$ e.
• D. i) $\to$ b,d, $\&$ e. ii) $\to$ a,c, $\&$ f.

Answer 1

The correct option is C i) $\to$ a,c, $\&$ f. ii).$\to$ b,d, $\&$ e.

i) Mitosis $\to$ c. The number of chromosomes remains the same. $\to$ f. Division process occurs only once. $\to$ a. Two diploid daughter cells are formed.

ii) Meiosis $\to$ d. Bivalents are formed and crossing over is seen. $\to$ e. Division process occurs twice. $\to$ b. Four haploid daughter cells are formed.
