Polypeptide chains undergo some modifications before they become fully functional. Some of these modifications include: proteolytic cleavage, lipidation and glycosylation. Proteolytic cleavage refers to the removal of some amino acids from a polypeptide chain by proteases in order for the protein to become active. An example of a substance that is modified through this process is insulin.

A type of cell division that halves the number of chromosomes is known as
rjkz [21]
The answer is meiosis. 

In meiosis, this process produces 4 daughter cells which are all genetically different to each other and their parent cell. They have only half of the chromosomes. This is because, at one point in the process before the cells divide, parent do not copy their genetic information, which ends up each daughter cells only receiving half of the chromosomes after division.

The daughter cells are also said to be haploid, and in human, these cells are usually gametes, which are for reproduction, so that after 2 of these haploid cells join together, the correct amount of chromosomes can be restored.
