    The correct answer option is C. a cell that has double the number of chromosomes as the daughter cell.

    Explanation:

    Meiosis is a two-step division process, meiosis I and meiosis II, where the cell division occurs in the germ cells, also known as diploid cells.

    It results into the formation of gametes (haploid). Therefore, the number of chromosome is reduced to half in daughter cells as a result of meiosis.
