    4. Meiosis

    Explanation:

    Mitosis creates cells for growth and repair, not for sexual reproduction. Binary fission is a form of asexual reproduction, not sexual reproduction. Diploid cell production is mitosis (mitosis creates diploid cells, or cells with a full set of chromosomes)

    Meiosis is the correct answer. Meiosis creates gametes or sex cells that are necessary for sexual reproduction. Through this cell division process, 4 gametes are produced. The cells that are produces are haploid, which means they only have half of a full set of chromosomes. The cells are haploid because, during fertilization, a sperm (male sex cell) and egg (female sex cell) fuse. The result is a diploid zygote with half of the genetic information from the father and the other half from the mother.

    The correct answer is 4. Meiosis.
