Meiosis involves two cell divisions: Meiosis I and Meiosis II. Meiosis I separates the matching-or 'homologous' - pairs of chromosomes. Meiosis II divides each chromosome into two copies (much like mitosis). In Meiosis I, each daughter cell receives a mix of chromosomes from the two sets in the parent cell.
5.4.1 Introduction. Most cells reproduce to form identical copies, or daughter cells, for the purpose of growth or repair. This process is called mitosis. However, parental gametes the sperm and egg cells are unique from all other cells in that they reproduce through a process called meiosis. The purpose of meiosis is to shuffle genetic information and cut the cellular chromosome number in half, from 46 chromosomes to 23 chromosomes.
