The true statements regarding the process of meiosis are:
D. It is responsible for the production of gametes.
E. It is responsible for the reduction of chromosomes.
Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half and results in the production of gametes (sperm and eggs). It is not responsible for the production of blood (A), somatic cells (B), or enzymes (C). It also does not maintain the diploid (2n) chromosome number (F), as it reduces it to a haploid (n) number in the gametes.
