NEET BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Haploid describes a cell that contains a single set of chromosomes. The term haploid can also refer to the number of chromosomes in egg or sperm cells, which are also called gametes. In humans, gametes are haploid cells that contain 23 chromosomes, each of which a one of a chromosome pair that exists in diplod cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Haploid refers to the presence of a single set of chromosomes in an organism’s cells. Sexually reproducing organisms are diploid (having two sets of chromosomes, one from each parent). In humans, only the egg and sperm cells are haploid.

Detailed explanation-3: -Genome: The haploid set of chromosomes in a gamete or microorganism, or in each cell of a multicellular organism. The genotype is the set of genes in our DNA which is responsible for a particular trait.

Detailed explanation-4: -The only exceptions are reproductive (egg and sperm) cells, known as ‘haploid’ cells because they contain a single set of 23 chromosomes.

Detailed explanation-5: -Final answer: The egg cell and the antipodal cells have a haploid number of chromosomes.
