Haploid cells are denoted n, and diploid cells are denoted 2n.
"n" refers to the set of chromosomes - therefore haploid cells have one set of chromosomes and diploid cells have two sets (pairs of chromosomes). Haploid cells have half the number of chromosomes as diploid cells.

∙ 11y agoA human reproductive cell or sex cell (sperm/egg) are haploid and has only one of each of the 23 chromosomes.
The union of two reproductive cells with the haploid number of chromsomes results in a diploid zygote.
Haploid cells are symbolized by the alphabet "n" that refers to the number of chromosomes that is present in a reproductive cell.

What are haploid and diploid cells?
Somatic (body) cells are diploid. Sex cells (gametes) are haploid.
Are sex cells haploid or diploid?
Haploid
What types of cells are produced from Meiosis?
Haploid cells Sex cells Reproductive cells Sperm & oocytes
Is amoeba a haploid or a diploid?
The amoeboid cells are haploid. In the sexual phase of the life cycle, two amoeboid cells fuse to form a zygote. New amoeboid cells are produced by meiosis.
What process can reproduce haploid eukaryotic cells?
The haploid eukaryotic cells are produced by mitosis in haploid plants and by meiosis in diploid plants.
What is the product of meiosis I?
Two haploid cells
