Question

which statement is an accurate summary of meiosis?
a cell divides into gametes.
a gamete becomes a zygote.
a gamete makes a copy of itself.
a cell is copied.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Meiosis is a type of cell - division that results in the formation of gametes (sperm and egg cells). A cell undergoes meiosis to produce four non - identical haploid gametes. The other options are incorrect: a gamete fuses with another gamete to form a zygote (not becoming a zygote on its own), a gamete does not make a copy of itself in the context of meiosis, and a cell being copied refers more to mitosis.

Answer:

A. A cell divides into gametes
