Yes. A gamete cell is a sex cell that has one set of chromosomes which equal 23. A gamete cell is a haploid cell. A somatic cell is a non-sex cell that has two sets of chromosomes that equal 46. A somatic cell is a diploid cell. For a haploid cell to become a diploid, two haploid cells must join together, which makes 46 chromosomes (23+23=46)p. This can be done through the reproductive process in humans. To create a baby, the egg from the mother and the sperm from the father join together to make a zygote, fertilized egg (baby), with two sets of chromosomes from both parents.

Why should the gametes be haploid when the new organism will be diploid?
Gametes are another name for sex or sperm cells. When two haploids come together they form a zygote and therefore a diploid.
What process occurs when haploid cells come together to form a diploid cell?
The sporophyte stage! just found the answer to my homework
Dose meiosis produce diploid or haploid cells?
its haploid= 4 cellsBy the end of meiosis all four resulting daughter cells are haploid.
In plant what is the diploid form called?
In plants, what is the diploid form called?
Is the dominant form of the lily haploid or diploid?
Diploid

How do yeast sometimes reproduce sexually?
Only haploid yeast cells are able to conduct sexual reproduction. When they do, the haploid cells are usually not the same gender. Before joining with the opposite type of haploid yeast cell, each cell undergoes a process called shmooing in which it becomes longer and thinner in preparation for the joining. The shmooing cells then fuse and join their nuclei together to create a diploid. The new diploid then begins to bud and form a colony of diploid yeast cells.Sexual reproduction continues with the diploid cell returning to a haploid state when the environmental conditions become hostile. Cells that already exist as haploids tend to die off when environmental conditions are unfavorable, but diploid cells undergo meiosis and subsequently divide into four daughter haploid spores in poor environmental conditions. Spores are inert cells that are able to tolerate adverse conditions much better than active cells. When the environmental conditions become favorable again, the spores begin to resume normal life cycle activities, either continuing to exist as haploids or joining with other haploids to create new diploid colonies.
Why must gametes be haploids?
It must join with the other gamete to form a diploid number of chromosomes. If it had a diploid number to begin with, the result would be twice the normal amount of chromosomes. A normal cell had "2n" number of chromosomes, and each gametes have "n". If they had "2n" to begin with, the resulting zygote would have "4n", which is clearly not normal in human genome.
What is the plant diploid form called?
A sporophyte is the diploid form and a gametophyte is haploid form.
Is the dominant form of the lily haploid or diploid?
Diploid
Why is meiosis important sexual reproduction?
Meiosis produces diverse haploid cells that combine during sexual reproduction, ideal for the theory of natural selection. It ensures that reduction division occurs so that when the gametes (haploids) form a zygote (diploid) it ends up having the original 46 chromosomes.
Why is the skin an example of organs?
Cells come together to form tissue. Tissues come together to form a functional unit called organs. The skin is simply tissues that come together to form several functions.
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).
When a female cell reproduces gametes how many haploids form?
Four; one egg cell and three polars.
