Meiosis creates gametes (sperm and eggs cells), creating unique combinations of both maternal and paternal chromosomes.

Explanation:

The result of meiosis is the formation of four unique cells, each carrying a new assortment of genes and chromosomes, and each with half the number of original chromosomes, thus maintaining the chromosome number of a species from generation to generation.
