bloody hell, i know this is a hypothetical question but still, the biology exam was not written in fairytopia for christ's sake, they take into account practicality in their answers.

A is simply impossible to execute and therefore is not correct, seriosuly, its quite funny that people selected it, how the hell is it possible? if you notice the VCAA amrking trends in pervious years trial examss multiuple choice sections, you will notice that impracticality it one factor used to deem an answer incorrect - if two answers (A and B) sound correct, and one had to be "better" than the other - it would be the one that is POSSIBLE in the first place
in regards to your claim that it's impossible, look at the 2008 unit 3 q25 biol exam. how does stocking the pool with fish that eat mosquito larvae seem possible?
fish are much bigger  and easy to get

Yeah it's definitely B because females don't actually produce 4 gametes but 3 polar bodies and an ovum instead and the other options are just plain wrong.
