    The offspring are genetically unique.

    Answer: Option C

    Explanation:

    Meiosis is a form of cell division that is concentrated towards the reproductive cells. In this cell division the diploid cells (two sets of chromosomes) undergo reduction to form a haploid cell (one set of chromosome). The haploid cell produces sperms and eggs.

    Meiosis occurs in two levels Meiosis I and II. Chromosomal segregation happens during meiosis I and II to produce a genetic diversity. The important net result obtained by the meiosis is to produce a genetically unique offspring.
