Every cell in the body, other than the sperm and egg cells, is diploid. This means that they all have the whole complement of two sets of 23 chromosomes, totalling 46. The gametes, sex cells, only have one set of 23 chromosomes. This is called haploid. This is so that when one haploid gamete from a female and another haploid gamete from a male fuse, a diploid cell will form and be able to mitotically replicate to produce an individual.
What else can I help you with?
Does diploid occur during metaphase 1?
Yes, ths chromosomes remain diploid in metaphase I.
What type of cell division can occur in both haploid and diploid cells?
Meiosis is a type of cell division that can occur in both haploid and diploid cells. In haploid cells, meiosis produces gametes (sex cells) with half of the genetic material, while in diploid cells, it helps in producing haploid cells for sexual reproduction.
Do diploid and haploid cells have an alternation of generations or mutations?
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.
What type of division occur to produce an embryo plant from the diploid zygote formed after fertilization?
meiosis
What diploid?
diploid is double the number of chromosomes

In order for the sperm cell to achieve a diploid state what must occur?
To achieve a diploid state, the sperm cell must fuse with a haploid egg cell during fertilization. This fusion combines the genetic material from the sperm (haploid) and the egg (haploid) to form a diploid zygote.
