Answer: Meiosis
Step-by-step explanation:
Meiosis creates gamete "daughter cells" that have half the chromosomes as a normal cell that would be created during mitosis, which is the division and reproduction of identical cells from the parent. In humans, a regular 46 chromosome cell divides through meiosis to create gametes with 23 chromosomes. This is important to be sure that an organism that is made through reproduction with sperm and egg has the correct number of chromosomes.
