Meiosis occurs in diploid cells. The chromosomes duplicate once, and through two successive divisions, four haploid cells are produced, each with half the chromosome number of the parental cell. Meiosis occurs only in sexually reproducing organisms.
Meiosis is the type of cell division which produces gametes, or sex cells eg egg and sperm. The gametes then fuse in the process of fertilization. If each gamete contained the â¦ full number of chromosomes eg 46 in humans, then the fertilized egg would end up with twice the number of chromosomes eg 92 in humans.
