Question

This is a haploid cell with half the reproductive information from the parent.

Answer 1

A haploid cell is one that contains a single set of chromosomes, which is half the number of chromosomes found in diploid cells. In humans and most animals, haploid cells are often represented by gametes, such as sperm and eggs. During sexual reproduction, these haploid cells combine during fertilization to form a diploid zygote, restoring the full set of chromosomes inherited from both parents. Haploid cells are critical in the process of meiosis, where diploid cells undergo two rounds of division to produce four genetically diverse haploid cells.
