Meiosis /maÉªËoÊsÉ¨s/ is a specialized type of cell division which reduces the chromosome number by half. This process occurs in all sexually reproducing single-celled and multi-celled eukaryotes, including animals, plants, and fungi.
Best Answer: In biology, meiosis is the process by which one diploid eukaryotic cell divides to generate four haploid cells often called gametes. The word meiosis comes from the Greek meioun, meaning to make smaller, since it results in a reduction in chromosome number in the gamete cell.
