Answer:

4 chromosomes

Explanation:

Meiosis is a kind of cell division that produces daughter cells that already have their chromosome number reduced by half. Due to this reason, meiosis is called a reduction division. A diploid parent cell (2n) will produce gametes with haploid cells (n).

According to this question, a fruit fly has 8 chromosomes or 4 pairs of chromosomes in its wing cells, after undergoing meiotic division, it will possess 4 chromosomes in each gamete cell. Note that the chromosome number has been reduced by half.
