Is the polar body a haploid cell?

Yes, polar bodies are haploid cells. They are produced during oogenesis when the cytoplasm of the primary oocyte is unequally divided during meiosis, resulting in one large secondary oocyte and two smaller polar bodies.


What happens to the 4 haploid cells after meiosis?

Depends. In males all four cells become sperm. In females one becomes to oocyte while the other three become polar bodies that can provide some nutrients to the oocyte, or just dissipate depending on species.


When a cell contains only one chromosome of each homologous pair the cell is?

ploidy is the classification based on the number of homologous chromosomes present. if there is only one pair of homologous chromosomes then the nucleus is said to be haploid if there are two pairs then it is known as diploid if three it is triploid if many it is noted as polyploidy --------------------------- an oocyte or a spermatocyte are haploid cells in a species that normally have diploid cells.
