The process by which a cell divides into two daughter cells is called
a. cell division.
b. metaphase.
c. interphase.
d. mitosis.

The correct answer is A) Cell division.

Cell division is a process by which parent cell divides and produces two daughter cells. It can be of different types depending upon the organisms where it is taking place.

For instance, binary fission ( in prokaryotes), mitosis and meiosis in eukaryotes.

Meiosis ( reductional cell division) specifically occurs in sexually reproducing organisms where it produces sex cells ( gametes). Mitosis is significant in growth and repair of the tissues and daughter cells have same genetic content as that of their parent cells.

the answer would be d

both male and female gametes are produced by meiosis of the germ cells. therefore, both male and female gametes are haploid. one male and one female gamete unite during the fertilization to form the diploid zygote. in seed bearing plants, pollen grain is the male gametophyte, which produces sperm cells.
