which of the following statements correctly describes meiosis?

a. the cells produced at the end of meiosis are genetically identical to the parent cell.

b. meiosis does not occur in reproductive cells.

c. the cells produced at the end of meiosis contain half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

d. cells divide only once during meiosis.

At the end of meiosis, produced cells contain half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Option C is correct.

Thus, ONLY option C correctly defines meiosis
