Cell division takes place in the cells and chromosomes line up along the center of the cell
During meiosis, the number of chromosomes is halved. This process results in the formation of sex cells (sperm and egg) with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
Meiosis causes the chromosomes to separate and reduce their number in half during cell division.
Nondisjunction occurs in too many cells or too few cells causing defects
the chromosomes pairs line in the center of the cell the chromosomes pairs line in the center of the cell
According to mendel's law of segregation, what happens to chromosomes during meiosis is that, allele pairs do separate leaving each and every cell with a single allele for each trait.

They mate.
The chromosomes number is halved during cell division through meiosis, not mitosis.
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.
They must double
Chromosomes move to opposite poles of the cell.
