So far, we have examined a cell that does not undergo crossing over. What is true about such a cell?

b. It will produce a limited variety of gametes with certain alleles being always passed on together.

Crossing over is a process that happens during meiosis, where the 23 chromosomes from the mother mixes with the 23 from the dad, creating an individual with an unique combination of genes. The only chromosome that does not do crossing over is the chromosome Y, because it is too different from his counterpart, the chromosome X.
