All cells within an organism will have the same number of chromosomes, which is the diploid number. The gametes, on the other hand, will have the haploid number of chromosomes.
4. Two gametes get together to make something new. Just double up!
Meiosis is involved in sexual reproduction. It produces gametes (eg. sperm and ovum/egg) which contain half the number of chromosomes of a normal (somatic/non-sex) cell. This means that in order to produce a new organism the gametes from the two different parents must combine. This results in an organism with a combination of the parents' genes (half the chromosomes from one parent, and half from the other). The organism is therefore different to both parents.

For a species with three pair of chromosomes how many gametic combinations are possible?
be produced by meiosis

Gametes have half the number of chromosomes - therefore if the diploid number is 22, the gametes would have 11 chromosomes.
When a zygote is diploid it obtains two sets of chromosomes. Gametes contain one set of chromosomes. Therefore, 6 chromosomes would amount to 3 sets of gametes.
