What statement best explains why meiosis produces haploid cell rather than diploid cells

Biology

Shkiper50 [21]3 years ago

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).

<span>I believe these are the followings:
</span><span>Haploid cells join to form an organism that has half the number of chromosomes as the parent
</span>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.
<span>Haploid cells join to form an organism that is genetically identical to the parent.</span><span>


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.</span>

blsea [12.9K]

The person who is most likely to be interested in the research involving the transfer of energy by the organisms living in the ocean's hydrothermal vents is Everett Shock.

He along with his students tests and develops the thermodynamic data for the bio-molecules, minerals, and the aqueous solutes. The reactivity of the organic compounds is explored by them in the hydrothermal conditions. So, he is the most likely person to be interested in the said discovery.

Hence, the answer is 'Everett Shock'.

What is maeant by sexual reproduction
Karolina [17]

Answer:

Sexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction involving the fusion of haploid female gamete (egg cell) and haploid male gamete (sperm cell). The fusion of these gametes occurs at fertilization resulting in the formation of a diploid zygote. ... Two major types of sexual reproduction are syngamy and conjugation.
