For a cell to be diploid means it has two sets of chromosomes. A cell gets one set of chromosomes from the mother and one set from the father.

When are human cells diploid?
All human somatic (body) cells are diploid. Only the gametes, sperm and egg cells, are haploid.
In humans what cells are diploid?
All body or somatic cells are diploid. Only sex cells are haploid.
Is a stomach cell a haploid or a diploid cell?
All of the cells in a human body, including the stomach are diploid. There is one cell that is not diploid and that is the sex cell. It is haploid.
What cell type is diploid?
Almost every cell in the body id diploid, the only cells that are haploid are the germ cells, ie sperm and ovum.
What is the difference between a diploid and haploid cell?
Haploid cells are gametes, meaning they are reproductive cells. They have half the number of chromosomes as somatic cells. Diploid (somatic) cells are in every part of the body other than the gametes. The have twice the amount of chromosomes as in haploid cells. Haploid cells reproduce using meiosis, while diploid cells use mitosis.a haploid cell has half the amount of chromosomes of a diploid cell. human germ cells are haploids (the egg and sperm) they each contain 23 chromosomes.
Are most of the cells in the human body called haploid or diploid?
All cells in the human body that are not gametes (sperm or egg cells) are diploid. Gametes are haploid.
What are haploid and diploid cells?
Somatic (body) cells are diploid. Sex cells (gametes) are haploid.

Is a stomach cell a haploid or a diploid cell?
All of the cells in a human body, including the stomach are diploid. There is one cell that is not diploid and that is the sex cell. It is haploid.
Where would you find diploid and haploids in the human body?
All cells except sex cells are diploid. And sex cells are haploid.
Are the gamete cell of your body haploid or diploid?
Human muscle cells are diploid.All human cells are diploid except for gametes (sperms and ova) and the cells that divide to form them (secondary spermatocytes and secondary oocytes).
What is the difference between haploid diploid and zygote?
There are two types of cells in the body - haploid cells and diploid cells. The difference between haploid and diploid cells is related to the number of chromosomes that the cell contains.
Are stomach cells haploid or diploid?
Stomach cells are normal body cells and are therefore diploid.
