The correct response is:

They both can pass on genetic variations that can be inherited.

Mutations introduce changes in the DNA sequence, which can result in genetic variation. Meiosis, the process of cell division that produces gametes, also contributes to genetic variation through recombination and independent assortment. Both processes can lead to traits that may be inherited by future generations.
