Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Meiosis divides the amount of chromosomes in the gamates so that when the sperm and egg combine there is genetic variance. If meiosis does not occur and only regular cell division occurs there will be the same amount of chromosomes as all other bodily cells as no organelles or cytoplasm is lost in cell division
