Cell+Division

 ** Meiosis **  > > **Diploid Cells:** A cell that contains two sets of chromosomes ( one set donated from each parent) > **Hapliod Cells:** A cell containging one set of chromosomes     **Meiosis 1 (First Cell Divison) **  1. Seperates each homologous pair 2. Produces two daughter cells, each with one set of chromosomes
 *     Reduces the chromosome number from diploid to hapliod
 *     P        receded by chromosome duplication, cell divided twice to form four daughter cells



**Meiosis 2 (Second Cell Divison) **    1. Sister chromatids of each chromosome seperates 2. The result is total of four haploid cell
