Report Abuse. Meiosis is the process where a constant number of chromosomes is maintained in a species. In normal somatic cell there are two sets of identical chromosomes.During meiosis the number of chromosomes from a gamete mother cell (2n), are halved and the gametes which are formed receive only one set of chromosomes(n).Then after fusion of these gametes during reproduction the zygote (2n) is formed. This zygote is again with normal 2 sets of chromosomes.uring meiosis the number of chromosomes from a gamete mother cell (2n), are halved and the gametes which are formed receive only one set of chromosomes(n).

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.
