Correct Option (b) Reason : Cleavage is a succession of rapid cell division during which the cells undergo the S phase (DNA synthesis) and M-phase (mitosis) of the cell cycle
but often virtually skip the G1 and G2-phases. Cleavage simply divides the cytoplasm of larger cells into smaller cells, called blastomeres.
