Solution

The correct option is C Production of gametes
There are two types of cell division that occurs in our body: mitosis and meosis. Meiosis is a specialized type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half and is involved in the production of gametes.
Mitosis occurs in somatic cells and is involved in the development, growth of the organism and also in the repair of the tissues in the body.
