Explanation: Meiosis is the process of two cell divisions by which one diploid cell produces four haploid cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
The process of meiosis is the cell division that prepares the species for sexual reproduction. Through meiosis cells goes from diploid (2n) cells to haploid (n) gamates. Each daughter cell carries exactly one half of the genetic material from the mother cell. In females the result of meiosis is the production of egg cells, where in the male, the result of meiosis is the production of sperm cells.
