Solution

The correct option is D Oogenesis
When the diploid cells undergo meiosis, it produces egg cells, they sometimes divide unevenly. The daughter cell where most of the cytoplasm is segregated becomes the egg or the ovum. The other smaller cells are called as polar bodies.
Thus, polar bodies are found where egg cells are formed i.e., oogenesis.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
