What is the purpose of meiosis?

  1. Create gametes

  2. Package genetic material

  3. Produce enzymes

  4. Convert energy

The correct answer is: Create gametes

The purpose of meiosis is specifically to produce gametes, or reproductive cells, such as sperm and eggs. While packaging genetic material is part of the process, it is not the primary purpose. Similarly, producing enzymes and converting energy are not functions of meiosis.
