Meiosis takes place in:

1. Conidia
2. Gemmule
3. Megaspore
4. Meiocyte

Correct answer: Meiocyte

Solution

A meiocyte is the diploid cell that undergoes meiosis, so it is the site where reduction division occurs. Conidia and gemmules are asexual structures, and a megaspore is a product of meiosis rather than the cell where it happens.
