    C

    Explanation:

    You can eliminate A and D immediately as at the end of meiosis I, there are only two haploid cells, not four yet.

    They each contain one homologous chromosome from each parental pair because during metaphase I, the chromosomes line up in homologous pairs and separate to each pole in anaphase I. So both of the resulting cells contain a full "X", but only one from each homologes.
