• B. Only B is correct
• C. Both A and B are correct
• D. Both A and b are wrong

Answer 1

The correct option is C Both A and B are correct

For any cell division, the DNA has to be copied, so that it can be transferred to each daughter cell. The process of DNA duplication is prone to errors, which are usually fixed. The errors which are not fixed lead to variation among the offspring.
