Solution
The correct option is B Reductional cell division
Meiosis is a process in which the number of chromosomes are reduced to half which is called reductional division. It increases the genetic variability in the population of organisms from one generation to the next which is important for the process of evolution.
So the correct answer is 'Reductional cell division'.
