Greek for " cut in half, " which is what meiosis actually does to chromosome number.
Meiosisis a special type of cell division necessary for sexual reproduction in eukaryotes. The cells produced by meiosis are gametes or spores. In many organisms, including all animals and land plants (but not some other groups such as fungi), gametes are called sperm and egg cells.
Reproduction basicaly means to have a baby, which is basically meiosis. Meiosis means to have sex and get pregnant. Hope that helps!

Meiosis
Meiosis I & Meiosis II
Meiosis 1 and Meiosis 2
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
