Answer:

Number of chromosomes

Step-by-step explanation:

Meiosis is a specialized type of cell division in which the gametes are produced.

A diploid parent cell first replicates its DNA. Then, two rounds of cell division occurs to produce 4 haploid cells, each with half the amount of chromosomes. These gametes fuse during fertilization to restore the diploid state.

Therefore, meiosis changes the number of chromosomes.
