Solution

The correct answer is "meiosis only".

Here's why:

  1. Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four gamete cells. This process is what causes genetic diversity.

  2. During the process of meiosis, one cell divides twice to form four daughter cells. These four daughter cells only have half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell.

  3. In the first division, the pairs of chromosomes are separated. This is where the variability comes in - each chromosome pair is separated and divided into two cells
