Hello,
I got this question wrong on a homework assignment and I still can't find the correct answer.
The reduction of the chromosome number during meiosis is most important for:
1: keeping the amount of DNA in the cell at a minimum level.
2: allowing the growth of the cell without increasing the DNA content.
3: maintaining the chromosome number during sexual reproduction.
4: preventing the nucleus from becoming larger with each cell division.
I marked 3 as the correct answer. Is there any other answer?

If the number of chromosomes doubles in each generation, what would that do? If that doesn't happen, what has occurred?
Is it 1:keeping the amount of DNA in the cell at a minimum level?
