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.he homologous chromosomes are then segregated into two new daughter cells, each containing half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
