The gametes (sperm and unfertilized egg, or ovum).
In humans, body cells are diploid. To form gametes, specialized cells in the gonads (primary spermatocytes in males, and primary oocytes in females) must go through meiosis.
Strictly, there are more than two types of cell that are haploid. The cells formed by meiosis I are haploid, and these are (in males) secondary spermatocytes, and (in females) secondary oocytes. These divide (meiosis II) to form more haploid cells that differentiate into the gametes.
The secondary spermatocytes, secondary oocytes, and gametes are the only haploid cells in humans. In other organisms, it can be quite another story!
All body or somatic cells are diploid. Only sex cells are haploid.
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.
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.

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.
Haploid cells are not found in any part of the body except the ovaries or testes.
The haploid chromosome number is half the chromosome number of the body cells. For example, in humans, body cells have 46 chromosomes. In human haploid cells (sex cells), there are 23 chromosomes.
Somatic (body) cells are diploid. Sex cells (gametes) are haploid.
All cells in the human body that are not gametes (sperm or egg cells) are diploid. Gametes are haploid.
Haploid cells only have half the necessary amount of DNA (sex cells). Diploid cells have a full set of DNA (body cells).
both cuz our body's are weird

Stomach cells are normal body cells and are therefore diploid.
Almost all of the cells in your body are haploid, EXCEPT for your sex cells, they have only ONE set of chromosomes. Yes, I pay attention to science class!
They are haploid or have half the number of chromosomes.
All body or somatic cells are diploid. Only sex cells are haploid.
