The right answer is Haploid cells join to form an organism that has a complete set of chromosomes.

Meiosis makes it possible to pass from a cell to 2n chromosomes to 4 cells with n chromosomes, thus ensuring the passage from the diploid phase to the haploid phase.

So from the fertilization phase to the meiosis phase, the cells will be diploid (2n chromosomes). From the meiosis phase to the fertilization phase, it is the haploid phase (n chromosome).

I believe these are the followings:
Haploid cells join to form an organism that has half the number of chromosomes as the parent
Haploid cells join to form an organism that has a complete set of chromosomes.
Haploid cells join to form an organism that has double the number of chromosomes as the parent.
Haploid cells join to form an organism that is genetically identical to the parent.

Therefore the second one is the statement that best explains why meiosis produces Haploid cells rather than Diploid cells

Haploid cells join to form an organism that has a complete set of chromosomes.

Five ounces of beef strip steak would count as ____ ounce equivalent of the protein foods.

Andrews [41]

The 5 ounces of beef strip steak would count as 5-ounce equivalents in the Protein Foods Group.

Al the foods made from poultry, meat, seafood, peas and beans, eggs, processed soy products, seeds, and nuts are regarded as the component of the Protein Foods Group.

Steak, like any other animal product, is a rich source of protein. A 5 oz serving of steak gives 38 grams of protein, more than 6 times of the amount in one egg. The proteins help in repairing muscles and other tissues and also helps in building muscles.
