During sexual reproduction, half of the chromosomes for the new organism are received from each parent. In humans, this means that 22 chromosomes are received from each parent, 44 chromosomes in total.
During reproduction, humans get half their chromosomes from the mother and half from the father. The mother provides one of the x sex chromosomes, and the father may contribute an x or y sex chromosome.
Plants have two phases during reproduction: sporophyte and gametophyte. The sporophyte is doploid and the gametophyte is haploid. Plants cycle between these seasonally.
Meiosis in animals is a type of cell division necessary for sexual reproduction. During meiosis, the chromosomes are halved so that during sexual reproduction two halves from two parents can come together and form one cell, genetically combining their different chromosomes.
Not at a fundamental level, chromosomes are just the way that genes are clumped together. But on a practical level, chromosomes are what the cells manipulate during growth and (especially) during reproduction.
During the sexual reproduction the gametes will be formed. When the formation of gametes, the number of chromosomes is reduced by half. But they returned to full amount when the two gametes fuse during fertilization. This is how the chromosomal set up is maintained.

It is the process during the formation of a zygote when two gametes, each carrying a different set of chromosomes, fuse together. This ensures that the developing zygote has a set of chromosomes from each parent and the cells can divide properly.The fusion of gametes is called sexual reproduction. There must be two gametes present for sexual reproduction to occur and they must have to correct number of chromosomes.
