Verified Answer :

Dit produces male and female sex cells

In meiosis, a cell

splits into four cells, also splitting the chromosome count in half from
the original cell. This is a critical stage for sexual reproduction in
that the cells then match up with other haploid cells produced by
meiosis from another parent to create a new organism. These sex cells
have both male and female chromosomes and the resulting sex depends on
how the cells match up with those of the other parent.
