you need 2 sex cells.. (1 sperm and 1 egg) to form a zygote that is diploid and has 46 chromosomes... can you figure out the answer?

Answer 6

yes now you get it

it was wrong ....

Answer 8

Haploid is the term used when a cell has only one set of chromosomes. A normal eukaryote organism is composed of diploid cells, one set of chromosomes from each parent. However, after meiosis, the number of chromosomes in gametes is halved. That is the haploid condition.
