During meiosis, the chromosome number decreases by half. For example, if a human cell with 46 chromosomes were to undergo meiosis, the result would be four daughter cells with 23 chromosomes in each.
No. Meiosis results in halving of chromosome number. Chromosome number after one round of meiosis is half that of original chromosome number. Generally, meiosis takes place during gamete formation. So when two gametes fuse, they lead to restoration of the chromosome number. Hence chromosome number can be maintained in sexually reproducing organisms.

Homologous chromosomes occur during meiosis. Meiosis reduces the chromosome number by half.
The chromosome number at the end of meiosis is half of the parent cell

Homologous chromosomes occur during meiosis. Meiosis reduces the chromosome number by half.
During meiosis, the chromosome number doubles because the cells replicate their DNA and split into two cells in meiosis I and in meiosis II, they replicate DNA and split once again, to form four cells.
The chromosome number at the end of meiosis is half of the parent cell
Meiosis.
Crossing over occurs during Prophase I of meiosis.
Meiosis is the type of cell division that results in gametes (sex cells) that possess half the chromosome number of the parent cell. In other words, meiosis reduces the chromosome number by one-half.
In Mitosis, the chromosome number remains the same. In meiosis, the number of chromosomes is halved.
There are 12 stages of meiosis. Meiosis is a type of cell that is dived, which reduces the chromosome number by half.
