Solution

The correct option is D Fertilization
Fertilization is in some ways the opposite of meiosis. In fertilization, haploid cells fuse to form a diploid cell while meiosis, in contrast, is a specialized kind of cell cycle that reduces the chromosome number to form haploid cell.
Hence answer is 'Fertilization'
