Each daughter cell will have 4 chromosomes. A parent cell is diploid and 2N, therefore N=4 for the parent cell because it has 8 chromosomes. After meiosis, a daughter cell is N and therefore has 4 chromosomes.
The two daughter cells that result from mitosis are diploid just like the parent cell. The daughter cells have the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. In meiosis, 4 daughter cells result each with half the number of chromosomes that the parent cell had and are therefore called haploid.
In humans, 46. 23 are passed from each parent to their child.
The original question was not asking about "each new cell," but rather they were asking about the parent cell which is the start of meiosis. The answer is, each parent cell, NOT gamete cell, contains 46 chromosomes or is diploid, (2n). After the two divisions that occur in meiosis, the end result will be four haploid (n) cells or rather, four cells with 23 chromosomes each.
the daughter cells have half the chromosomes the parent cell does. so when the sex cell combines with the other there isn't double chromosomes. :) the daughter cells have half the chromosomes the parent cell does. so when the sex cell combines with the other there isn't double chromosomes. :)

Because in meiosis the chromosomes don't line up
half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell
Same number as the parent cell

The chromosome number at the end of meiosis is half of the parent cell
2 (i think) :)

In meiosis, for daughter cells are produced, each containing half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell.
After meiosis, each daughter cell has half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. For example, in humans the parent cell would have 46 chromosomes, but after meiotic cell division, the daughter cells will each have 23 chromosomes.
