Question

human eggs and sperm are _____, and each has ____ chromosomes. diploid, 46 haploid, 23 diploid, 23 haploid, 46

Explanation:

Human eggs and sperm are gametes. Gametes are produced through meiosis, a type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half. In humans, the diploid (full - set) chromosome number is 46. So, gametes (eggs and sperm) are haploid (half - set) and have 23 chromosomes.

Answer:

B. haploid, 23
