The answer is the fourth one (d): Sex cells.
Explanation for each option:
a. Muscle cells - Incorrect. Muscle cells are produced through mitosis, not meiosis.
b. Skin cells - Incorrect. Skin cells are also produced through mitosis.
c. Blood cells - Incorrect. Blood cells are produced through mitosis in the bone marrow.
