Meiosis starts with one cell that has a diploid number of chromosomes, which means it has two sets of chromosomes.
The chromosomes divide.
In humans, 46 chromosomes are present when meiosis begins. The four daughter cells that result from meiosis have 23 chromosomes.

Twenty three chromosomes will be in each cell after meiosis is completed.
Before meiosis, a diploid cell typically contains 46 chromosomes in humans (23 pairs). After meiosis, each of the four resulting haploid cells contains 23 chromosomes, which is half the original number. This reduction is essential for sexual reproduction, ensuring that when sperm and egg unite, the resulting zygote has the correct diploid number.
