Genetic disorders or cancer could occur
Meiosis is a special kind of cell division that produces haploid (1n) cells. During meiosis, a single cell goes through two cell divisions (meiosis I and meiosis II.) Meiosis takes place only in the reproductive tissues of an organism.
One cell goes through two divisions. This results in four gametes.
Meiosis is divided into Meiosis I and Meiosis II because the initial cell divides twice producing four genetically different sex cells (gametes) Each time a cell divides, it goes through Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase. See the link below for a diagram showing the process.
Any time when a cell needs to replicate, it goes through mitosis. The only cells that don't go through mitosis are sex cells.
It does not change. Mitosis results in two identical cells with exactly the same number of chromoses. Mitosis occurs in somatic cells for the purpose of growth of tissues, unlike meiosis which occurs in sex cells prior to fertilisation. while mitosis starts and ends as a 2n cell the part about it not changing is wrong. mitosis starts off as 2n then each chromatid replicates creating a 4n cell in prophase until it reaches telophase it goes back to 2n as the chromatids separate at the poles, and the daughter cells are formed.
A mutation.
it can go really weird

"what happens when something goes wrong with meiosis?" i think you mean http://www.iob.org/userfiles/File/genetic_resources/essential_genetics/genetics_and_ethics/too_much_of_a_good_thing_what_happens_when_meiosis_goes_wrong.ppt#6 Everything you need is on that link "what happens when something goes wrong with meiosis?" i think you mean http://www.iob.org/userfiles/File/genetic_resources/essential_genetics/genetics_and_ethics/too_much_of_a_good_thing_what_happens_when_meiosis_goes_wrong.ppt#6 Everything you need is on that link
So everything's percise and nothing goes wrong, which is very rare.
meiosis goes through the prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase two time.
Yes, anything which produces a zygote goes through meiosis.
Meiosis.

It is when something goes worng in the seperating of chromosomes.
When something goes wrong, it goes awry.
