The diploid number is the total number of chromosomes found in the autosomes, or non-gamete cells of an organism. The diploid number includes both chromosomes of each homologous pair. Gametes, on the other hand, carry only one chromosome from each homologous pair; they are haploid rather than diploid. Gametes therefore carry half the number of chromosomes that autosomes do.

Meiosis results in cells with 23 chromosomes because it involves two rounds of cell division. During the first division, the chromosome number is halved from the original 46 to 23, ensuring that when the cells fuse during fertilization, the resulting offspring maintains the correct number of chromosomes. This reduction in chromosome number helps to create genetic diversity in offspring.
The word diploid means having 2 of something. In the case of cells containing DNA in the form of chromosomes, it would mean a set of 2 chromosomes instead of one. The only place that you would find only one set would be in the gametes (sperm or egg).
The mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons in an atom's nucleus, while the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus. The mass number determines the atom's mass, while the atomic number determines the element's identity on the periodic table.
In any atom, the number of protons will equal the number of electrons, but only in a neutral atom. Remember that most atoms loan, borrow or share electrons, so the number of protons will not be equal to the number of electrons in all cases. In review, only in a neutral atom will the number of protons equal the number of electrons.
diploid
Dipliod is a cell with one gene from the mom and one from the dad. A hapliod cell is either one gene from the mom or one from the dad.
Haploid
Meiosis. This is how the sex cells (sperm and eggs) are formed.

A diploid cell contains two sets of chromosomes, one from each parent, while a haploid cell contains only one set of chromosomes. In humans, a diploid cell has 46 chromosomes (23 pairs), whereas a haploid cell has 23 chromosomes.

In moss, the green leafy stuff is haploid. Mosses have a life cycle that alternates between a haploid gametophyte stage (the leafy green structure) and a diploid sporophyte stage.
Well first the sperm has to be made by meiosis. Then it has to get to the egg and enter it [If you catch my drift.] Then after that the nucleus of both the sperm and the egg disappear and the chromosomes of both join together and a new nucleus forms. This creates a new dipliod cell, or a new organism in other words.
Diploid chromosomes are complete, paired sets of chromosomes found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells, with one set inherited from each parent. In humans, the diploid chromosome number is 46. This allows for genetic diversity and ensures that each cell contains a full complement of genetic information.
