उत्तर
A haploid (n) cell is a cell that contains only one set of chromosomes. During sexual reproduction, meiosis reduces the chromosome number of the parental germ cells to half, so the gametes formed are haploid. In human beings, the haploid chromosome number is 23. Both the sperm and the ovum are haploid, and each carries 23 chromosomes.
