Which definition correctly describes a haploid cell during meiosis?

Answer
A
a cell that has half the number of chromosomes as the daughter cell
B
a cell that has one complete set of chromosomes
C
a cell that has double the number of chromosomes as the parent cell
D
a cell that has two complete sets of chromosomes

Explanation

A haploid cell contains one complete set of chromosomes. Meiosis reduces the chromosome number from two sets in the starting cell to one set in the resulting cells, so “a cell that has one complete set of chromosomes” is correct.
