Diploid and haploid cells do not have alternation of generations; this phenomenon occurs in multicellular organisms with a life cycle that alternates between haploid and diploid stages. Mutations can occur in both diploid and haploid cells, but they are more likely to have an impact in diploid cells due to their higher genetic complexity.

No, human cells are typically diploid, meaning they contain two sets of chromosomes. Octoploid organisms, such as certain plants, have eight sets of chromosomes in each cell.
The somatic (body) cells of that organism is the diploid number, 18. The number of chromosomes in the gametes ( sex cells) is half of the diploid number or 9.
No only living organisms have cells. But non-living organisms are made up of atoms instead.
Somatic cells
Diploid organisms contain the genetic material in two copies for a gene. Haploid organisms contain only single copy of every gene.
Haploid and diploid cells are not part of biological "divisions". Haploid and diploid cells are part of the life cycle of a single species. "Divisions" separate whole groups of genera. Haploid cells contain a half measure of chromosomes while diploid contain a full measure for diploid organisms. There are polyploid organisms like wheat that is hexaploid (6 sets of chromosomes). Haploid cells come about from "division" of original diploid cells in a process called meiosis if that's what you mean by division.
Sperm cells are diploid. Since humans are diploid organisms, I'm pretty sure the sperm would be as well. - biology honor student
All living things are organisms. There is no such thing as a living cell that is not an organism.

No, all living organisms are made up of cells. Cells are the basic unit of structure and function in living organisms.
Plant cells have a cell wall, and animal cells do not.

Cells which contain two of each chromosome (two sets of chromosomes) are said to be diploid. In most organisms, the body cells are diploid.
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.
