Which best describes meiosis?
a. it produces cells that are identical to the original cell.
b. it is responsible for the replacement of damaged skin cells.
c. it is responsible for growth of the organism.
d. it produces male and female sex cells.

D. it produces male and female sex cells

In meiosis, a cell splits into four cells, also splitting the chromosome count in half from the original cell. This is a critical stage for sexual reproduction in that the cells then match up with other haploid cells produced by meiosis from another parent to create a new organism. These sex cells have both male and female chromosomes and the resulting sex depends on how the cells match up with those of the other parent.

Well, both latitude and intensity of light affect temperature because, the higher the light intensity, the higher the temperature and since latitude is the measure of how close you are to the equator, then the closer to the equator you are, the higher the temperature is.
