The chromosomes number is halved during the process of meiosis, specifically during the first division called meiosis I.
The chromosomes number is halved during cell division through meiosis, not mitosis.
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.
The chromosome number is halved during the process of meiosis in the cell cycle.
The normal cellular genetic complement number 2N is reduced to 1N in both of the sexual gametes so that when they recombine we end up with the standard chromosome number [1N + 1N = 2N] in our zygote.
An organism with 24 chromosomes in each body cell will produce sex cells with 12 chromosomes each. This is because during meiosis, the chromosome number is halved to ensure the correct number of chromosomes in the offspring.

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.
The chromosome number is halved during the process of meiosis in the cell cycle.
Gametes have an odd number of chromosomes due to the process of meiosis, where the number of chromosomes is halved. This allows for the fusion of gametes during fertilization to produce offspring with the correct number of chromosomes.
During cell division, the chromosome number remains constant. In mitosis, each daughter cell receives an identical set of chromosomes to the parent cell. In meiosis, the chromosome number is halved to produce gametes with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
After meiosis I, the cell will have half the number of chromosomes as the original cell. This is because the chromosome number is halved during meiosis I, going from diploid to haploid.
The normal cellular genetic complement number 2N is reduced to 1N in both of the sexual gametes so that when they recombine we end up with the standard chromosome number [1N + 1N = 2N] in our zygote.
An organism with 24 chromosomes in each body cell will produce sex cells with 12 chromosomes each. This is because during meiosis, the chromosome number is halved to ensure the correct number of chromosomes in the offspring.
During meiosis, the chromosome number is halved through two rounds of cell division. In the first round, called meiosis I, homologous chromosomes separate, reducing the chromosome number by half. In the second round, called meiosis II, sister chromatids separate, resulting in the final halved chromosome number.
Meiosis is the process of nuclear division in which the number of chromosomes in certain cells is halved during gamete formation. This reduction in chromosome number ensures that when two gametes combine during fertilization, the resulting zygote will have the correct number of chromosomes.
A gamete has half the number of chromosomes of the somatic (diploid) cell. Therefore a zebra gamete would have 25 chromosomes if 50 is the diploid number.
The zygote's number of chromosomes is double that of the two sex cells
