Solution

The correct option is B Equational division
Gametogenesis is genesis or synthesis of gametes. In most of the higher animals including humans gametogenesis involves meiosis. The meiosis occurs in two stages- meiosis I and meiosis II. The meiosis I or first maturation division is reductional, where as meiosis II or second maturation division is equational division.
