Ploidy refers to how many complete sets of chromosomes a cell has.
A diploid cell will have two sets of chromosomes, one set from each parent.
A haploid cell is a cell with only one set of chromosomes.
For example, humans are diploid organisms - our cells each have two copies of 23 different chromosomes for a total of 46. Humans do produce haploid sperm and egg cells (with only one set of chromosomes for a total of 23 chromosomes per cell) during meiosis for reproduction as these two haploid cells can then fuse to produce a diploid fertilized embryo.
However, not all haploid cells are sex cells for multicellular organisms. All prokaryotes (i.e. bacteria) are considered haploid because they have a single circular chromosome. Many organisms - plants, funghi, yeast - go through haploid and diploid stages of their life cycles. Some insects are haploid.

What are cells called with half the genetic information?
Cells with half the genetic information are called haploid cells. Each haploid cell has only one set of chromosomes, whereas diploid cells have two sets. Haploid cells are typically found in reproductive cells such as sperm and egg cells.
Are daughter cells in meiosis haploid or diploid?
Daughter cells in meiosis are haploid.
Are the cells produced after meiosis I haploid or diploid?
The cells produced after meiosis I are haploid.
How are haploid and diploid related?
Haploid refers to having only one set of chromosomes, while diploid refers to having two sets of chromosomes. Body cells are diploid, while sex cells are haploid. In humans, diploid cells have two sets of 23 chromosomes for a total of 46, and haploid cells have one set of 23 chromosomes.
Does meiosis result in the formation of haploid or diploid cells?
Meiosis results in the formation of haploid cells.
What are cells called with half the genetic information?
Cells with half the genetic information are called haploid cells. Each haploid cell has only one set of chromosomes, whereas diploid cells have two sets. Haploid cells are typically found in reproductive cells such as sperm and egg cells.
Are haploid cells produced by mitosis?
No. Haploid cells are produced by meiosis.
What are haploid and diploid cells?
Somatic (body) cells are diploid. Sex cells (gametes) are haploid.
Are fingers made of diploid cells or haploid cells?
Fingers are made of diploid cells. Haploid cells are the reproductive cells.

Are the cells produced after meiosis I haploid or diploid?
The cells produced after meiosis I are haploid.
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.

Haploid
Does meiosis make haploid diploid cells?
haploid
