Answer:

The correct answer is - true.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the meiosis cell division, there are four cells present with n number of chromosomes which means these cells generated from by the meiosis have a half number of the chromosome as their parents. This is the reason this type of cell division is known as a reduction division.

These cells that are produced are sex cells or reproductive cell sperm in male and egg in female all have n number of chromosome number as they have to fuse to form a zygote.
