Meiosis forms haploid cells. This means that they have half the number of chromosomes as somatic (body) cells.
Meosis forms gametes (or sex cells)
Female gametes are called Ova
Male gametes are called Sperm
Gametes are formed by meiosis.
Meiosis could not be a type of cell division that produces new skin cells because meiosis is a cell division necessary for sexual reproduction only.
That is meiosis.
Meiosis is the type of cell division that produces haploid cells.
In meiosis diploid cells divide to produce four daughter cells each of which is haploid. It is the type of cell division required to produce gametes.

1N Gametes.
4 haploid daughter cells, known as gametes.

The type of cell division is meiosis
Meiosis is the type of cell division that produces haploid cells.
In meiosis diploid cells divide to produce four daughter cells each of which is haploid. It is the type of cell division required to produce gametes.
The number of cell results in Meiosis is 4.
meiosis
zygote
Cells formed from mitosis are diploid and are identical (if no mutations occurred during DNA replication) to the parent cell. Cells formed during meiosis are haploid and are different than the parent cell (due to the process of crossing over). Note that mitosis produced only 2 daughter cells whereas meiosis produces four.
Chemotherapy may or may not affect meiosis and mitosis. It is not a type of cell division.
