Each chromosome makes a copy
The homologous chromosomes form pairs.
Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.
Chromosomes condense or shorten up before cell division begins

Meiosis is the special process that creates the sex cells - with only 23 single chromosomes intead of 23 pairs.
Meiosis results in gametes that have half the number of chromosomes of other cells. A gamete carries one of each pair of homologous chromosomes. Their are 46 chromosoes in Meiosis I and 23 in Meiosis II.
Meiosis
The chromosomes become different from each other due to crossing over which occurs during prophase I.
there should be 23 chromosomes in each daughter.
Usually they dont as homologous chromosomes form bivalents with other homologous chromosomes and crossing over occurs between the 2. But if a chiasmata does form between the t homologous chromosomes they can change information.
Twenty three chromosomes will be in each cell after meiosis is completed.

2 cells and twenty chromatids each (or twenty half-chromosomes each), but I'm not sure for the human sex cells (meiosis) if they are the same for all the other cells in the body (mitosis). If eukaryotic cell having 20 chromosomes undergoes meiosis four cells will be formed, each having 10 chromosomes. This happens because in meiosis I, pairing between homologous chromosomes takes place and each chromosome from this pair gets separated to the opposite pole resulting into reduction of chromosome by half their original number. From these two haploid cell of meiosis I, meiosis second further divides each of these two cells to two by mitosis. Thus, four cells with 10 chromosomes each are formed.
The chromosomes become different from each other due to crossing over which occurs during prophase I.
Meiosis is known as a reduction division. The total number of chromosomes present prior to meiosis is reduced in half at the end of meiosis. In this case 12 pairs of chromosomes before meiosis (a total of 24 chromosomes) becomes 12 chromosomes (one of each pair) at the end of meiosis.
there should be 23 chromosomes in each daughter.

The amount of chromosomes diminishes in meiosis. meiosis produces sex cells, and each of these sex cells has only 23 chromosomes. Each parents provides 23 chromosomes, that's why some people look like both their mother and their father. Each regular body cell has 46 chromosomes.
half of each parents' chromosomes go to the offspring
