meiosis
meiosis is the basis for ______.
a) cellular division
b) sexual reproduction
c) asexual reproduction
d) sexual and asexual reproduction

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division that results in the formation of gametes (sperm and eggs). Sexual reproduction involves the fusion of gametes. So, meiosis is the basis for sexual reproduction. Cellular division in general can be mitosis (for growth, repair etc. in somatic cells) or meiosis. Asexual reproduction does not involve meiosis as it doesn't require gamete formation.

Answer:

B. sexual reproduction
