Its called disconjunction. Sometimes it is so bad that they have a miscarriage or the following happens:
Trisomy (extra chromosomeso have 47 chromosomes instead of 46)
Down's syndrome (andextra number 21 chromosome)
Klinefelter's syndrome (males with an extra X chromosome...XXY)

I believe it is called nondisjunction.
This process is called meiosis.
The main stage of meiosis is called the "reduction division" or "meiosis I." During this stage, homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange genetic information through a process called crossing over. They then separate, resulting in two cells with half the number of chromosomes as the original cell. Meiosis II then follows, where sister chromatids separate, resulting in four non-identical daughter cells.

The chromosomes split equally and move to the opposite sides of the cell.

Meiosis does in fact divide twice, once in meiosis I (cytokinesis) and meiosis II (cytokinesis) basically it divides into four daughter cells at the end of meiosis. Two from meiosis I and four in meiosis II
