C. It reduces the number of chromosomes to half in the sperm and egg.

Explanation:

The gametes are formed by meiosis. During meiosis the number of chromosomes is reduced to half i.e. the gametes contain a haploid number of chromosomes. The male and female gametes fuse to form a diploid zygote. In this way, meiosis maintains chromosome numbers in a species.

Hope it helps :)
