First I might note that your question implies that haploid is a verb... something cells do. That is not the case. Haploid is a state in which a cell is in. It is an adjective. It describes a cell that one has one copy of each chromosome. A better way to ask that would be...what cells are haploid in humans (or whatever organism you are interested it).
Well that depends on the organism. Many organisms (fungi for example) live most of their lives as haploid organisms. But I am going to assume you are talking about humans. In humans the only haploid cells are gametes produced in the gonads. Sperm for males and eggs for females. These each contain 1 copy of each chromosome. Upon fertilization they merge and the resulting cell becomes diploid again... a state in which the organism (person) will remain in for the rest of its life with the exception of the gametes which it then produces.

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
What are cells called with half the genetic information?
Haploid, 1N cells, reproductive cells. Not all haploid cells are reproductive cells
Are haploid cells produced by mitosis?
No. Haploid cells are produced by meiosis.
Are fingers made of diploid cells or haploid cells?
Fingers are made of diploid cells. Haploid cells are the reproductive cells.
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
What produces haploid cells?
what produces four genetically different haploid cells?
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.
How many cells are the result of meiosis II?
4 haploid cells.
How many haploid cells are in chickens?
The egg is a cell.
Are the final cells in meiosis diploid or haploid?
Haploid
