The human body contains two primary types of cells:
Haploid cells pertains to the number of chromosomes found in a gamete or represents half of the normal chromosome count in a particular somatic cells. The primary difference between haploid and diploid cells are the total number of chromosomes they consist of.[1]
The haploids are also called gametes. During the process of meiosis, the homologous chromosomal pairs separate to produce 2 haploid daughter cells.[2]
When sex cells such as egg and sperm meet, the combined genetic material creates a full 46 chromosomes becoming diploid.Thus human Sexual reproduction is designed as a natural method of producing genetically diverse offspring.[3]
