Answer:
D haploid (n) with a smaller number of chromosomes than the parent cells
Explanation:
meiosis results in gametes which have half the number of chromosomes and are therefore diploid because they have one set only. that is because later, the two cells with half the chromosomes (egg and sperm) join together to make a diploid cell
Punnet squares are your friend with these kinds of questions :)
<u> A | a |</u>
A <u>| AA | Aa |</u>
a <u>| Aa | aa |</u>
Now we can easily see that 1/4 of the offspring will be AA, 1/2 will be Aa, and 1/4 will be aa. Therefore, it is the third answer that's correct (1/4 AA, 1/2 Aa, 1/4 aa). Hope this helps! :)
