The correct answer is B. Meiosis.

A spore stalk which grows from the gametophyte of moss. The next step in the life cycle is meiosis.

Meiosis is termed as the type of specialized type of cell division which reduces chromosomes by half of it. The process of meiosis occurs in all multicellular eukaryotes and sexually reproducing single-celled which includes plants, animals, and fungi.

DNA replication is being followed by two rounds of cell division which produce four daughter cells, whereby each has half number of chromosomes being the original parent.
