Meiosis is a type of cell division in humans, which
has only one purpose that is to make daughter cells with exactly half the
number of chromosomes normally present in the cells. This is done by producing
gametes or sex cells, which is the sperm and eggs used for sexual reproduction.
The division process is from a diploid cell (one with two sets of chromosomes)
to haploid cells (ones with a single set of chromosomes).
