"Haploid" refers to the number of chromosomes in a gamete.

You may talk of a haploid number, haploid nucleus, haploid cell, or even a haploid organism, which is an animal or plant whose body cells contain the haploid number of chromosomes. Examples of haploid organisms are male honey bees and the leafy parts of mosses.

The haploid number is often the number of chromosomes in a single set (n); this is true of us humans, for example. Our gametes contain one set of chromosomes (n = 23), and our somatic (body) cells two sets (2n = 46).

However, some organisms have more sets; some wheat is tetraploid (4n) and its gametes are therefore 2n. In these cases the number of chromosomes in a single set (n) may be called monoploid.
