Question

Which one of these statements is true about haploid cells, diploid cells, and meiosis? O a In haploid cells, condensed chromosomes have an T shape, while in diploid cells they have an "X shape o b. The process of meiosis is identical in haploid and diploid cells. O c. Following DNA replication, haploid cells become diploid cells. O d. In diploid cells, meiosis I results in the formation of two haploid cells. e. Meiosis is a simpler process when it occurs in haploid cells, since there are unpaired chromosomes.

Explanation / Answer

Ans. d. In diploid cells, meosis I results in the formation of two haploid cells. During meiosis, a diploid cell divides to give rise to four haploid cells in two rounds of cell division. The diploid cell first divides in two haploid cells in meosis I, and then those two divide into two each in meosis II.
