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.
A zygote is diploid, it is formed by the union of a male sex cell (a sperm) and a female sex cell (an ovum) both of which are haploid.
Diploid cells have two sets of chromosomes, one from each parent, while haploid cells have only one set of chromosomes. Diploid cells are found in most of the body's tissues, while haploid cells are typically found in reproductive cells like sperm and eggs. During sexual reproduction, haploid cells combine to form a diploid zygote.
In the haploid life cycle of Chlamydomonas, the organism exists as a single-celled haploid individual that produces gametes through mitosis. After fertilization, it forms a diploid zygote that undergoes meiosis to produce haploid spores, completing the life cycle. In a diploid life cycle, the organism exists as a diploid individual that undergoes meiosis to produce haploid gametes, which fuse to form a diploid zygote that develops into a multicellular diploid individual.
two haploid gametes fuse to produce a zygote which develops into a diploid sporophyte. <3, Katie:)
Diploid gametes are not a product of meiosis. Meiosis is the process by which diploid cells undergo two rounds of division to produce haploid gametes. The haploid gametes then join during fertilization to form a diploid zygote.
A haploid cell has half the usual number of chromosomes, a diploid cell has the full set, and a zygote is formed when two haploid cells combine to create a diploid cell.
A zygote is diploid.
its a diploid.
No, a zygote is a diploid because it has the full number of 46 (23pairs) of chromosomes. Two gametes one from the male one from the female meet to form a zygote. gametes = haploid everything else = diploid

No - a zygote will be diploid. The sperm and egg are haploid - but they combine to create the zygote - which means it will have 2 sets of chromosomes.
the zygote
24 haploid. Egg has 24 haploid too. So when they combine to turn into a zygote, the zygote has 48 diploid. I learned this at school. And it is in a textbook.

True.
