The statement that does not accurately describe what occurs during the process of meiosis is:
C. Meiosis produces four identical gametes, either egg or sperm.
This statement is incorrect because meiosis produces four gametes that are genetically diverse due to the processes of crossing over and independent assortment, rather than identical gametes.
