Exactly one half of the number of nucleotides as are found in diploid Dna.
A cell with half the amount of DNA is typically a haploid cell. These cells have only one set of chromosomes, as opposed to diploid cells which have two sets. Haploid cells are typically found in sex cells such as eggs and sperm.
yes they both are sex cells. you are doing this unit in science, it is a fact of life. Please don't laugh , be shy or joke.It's how you were made(im asuming u r human).
No, meiosis is a cell division process that produces cells with a haploid chromosome number. This is achieved through two rounds of division following a single round of DNA replication, resulting in four genetically unique daughter cells.
If you are asking about cellular meiosis, one diploid parent cell will ultimately form four haploid daughter cells. The parent cell replicates all of its DNA, splits into two intermediate daughter cells that are diploid, and each of these intermediate daughter cells splits to form two more daughter cells. The end result is four haploid cells.
Somatic (body) cells are diploid. Sex cells (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).
Yes, sex cells are haploid meaning they have half the complement of DNA that a somatic cell would have.
Diploid cells have two sets of DNA (which is what is normal) while haploid cells (usually reproductive cells) have only one set.
Sex cells are haploid cells because they only contain one set of DNA

Haploid cells like sperm cells,ova,bacteria
A haploid cell is a cell which contains one set of DNA. Most cells have 2 full sets of DNA. Gametes (found in sex cells: sperm and egg cells) are gametes. It is important that they have only one set of DNA because, when the egg is fertilised, the two gametes fuse together to make a zygote with the full 2 sets of DNA.
During meiosis I, the DNA content is halved as homologous chromosomes separate, leading to haploid daughter cells. In meiosis II, sister chromatids separate without DNA replication, resulting in four haploid daughter cells with the same DNA content as the parent cell before starting meiosis.

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.
