The number of chromosomes in daughter cells in human meiosis is 23. During meiosis, the number of chromosomes in the parent cells (sperm and egg cells) is halved to produce haploid daughter cells, which contain half the number of chromosomes as the parent cells.
Meiosis produces daughter cells with half as many chromosomes as the parent cell. This means that because a normal human cell has 46 chromosomes, a gamete (produced through meiosis) will only contain 23 chromosomes.
The chromosome number at the end of meiosis is half of the parent cell
half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell
The daughter cells formed by meiosis are haploid, meaning they have only one set of chromosomes. In humans, the haploid number of chromosomes is 23.
The number of chromosomes in daughter cells in human meiosis is 23. During meiosis, the number of chromosomes in the parent cells (sperm and egg cells) is halved to produce haploid daughter cells, which contain half the number of chromosomes as the parent cells.
In humans, 46. 23 are passed from each parent to their child.
Meiosis produces daughter cells with half as many chromosomes as the parent cell. This means that because a normal human cell has 46 chromosomes, a gamete (produced through meiosis) will only contain 23 chromosomes.
After meiosis, each daughter cell has half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. For example, in humans the parent cell would have 46 chromosomes, but after meiotic cell division, the daughter cells will each have 23 chromosomes.

The daughter cells formed by meiosis are haploid, meaning they have only one set of chromosomes. In humans, the haploid number of chromosomes is 23.
Meosis is called a reductional division. This means the daughter cells in a meotic cell division have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Parent cell (2n) ------> Meotic cell division ------> 2 daughter cells (n)
Same number as the parent cell
Meiosis produces daughter cells with the haploid number of chromosomes. The haploid number is one complete set of chromosomes, such as the egg and sperm contain.
There are 23 chromosomes in a human cell following meiosis. Meiosis is sometimes called "reduction division". The first division of meiosis (meiosis I) halves the chromosome number. In humans, there are 46 chromosomes in the mother cell when it begins meiosis I. More precisely, there are 23 pairs, one of each pair having been inherited from each parent. This number (46 in humans) is the diploid number for the species. After meiosis, each cell has the haploid number (23 in humans), i.e. one of each chromosome in the set.
In meiosis, for daughter cells are produced, each containing half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell.
