Meiosis is the process by which gametes or sex cells (ie sperm and ova) are made. Gametes have only one copy of each chromosome (haploid) where as the progenitor cells have two copies (diploid).
Regular cell division results in daughter cells which have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cells. Gametes, however, are haploid, that is, contain half the normal complement of chromosomes. They are produced by the process of cell divsion known as meiosis, or "reduction divsion".

A total of four daughter cells are created during meiosis. There are two phases of meiosis, meiosis 1 and meiosis 2. During meiosis 1 two daughter cells are created while during meiosis 2 four daughter cells are created.
Gametes or sex cells
Meiosis produces four nonidentical daughter cells.

Gametes or sex cells
Meiosis is the replication of sexual gametes. The gametes are produced during meiosis and are used to fertilize other gametes in reproduction.
During mitosis 2 diploid cells are produced diploid means they have the full complement of DNA these cells make up nearly all the cells in the body with the exception of the gonads. During meiosis 4 haploid cells are produced meaning they have half the complement of DNA these haploid cells are in gonads of animals.
