Final answer:

Meiosis results in 4 haploid cells called gametes that have one copy of each chromosome and each allele for each gene in different combinations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Meiosis results in 4 haploid cells called gametes that have one copy of each chromosome and each allele for each gene in different combinations. Meiosis is a type of cell division that involves two rounds of nuclear division resulting in four nuclei and usually four haploid daughter cells. During meiosis, genetic variation is introduced through crossover in prophase I and random alignment at metaphase I.
