Answer:
Haploid describes a cell that contains a single set of chromosomes. The term haploid can also refer to the number of chromosomes in egg or sperm cells, which are also called gametes. In humans, gametes are haploid cells that contain 23 chromosomes, each of which a one of a chromosome pair that exists in diplod cells.
The term diploid refers to a cell or an organism that has two sets of chromosomes. In humans and other higher forms of living things, one of the two sets is derived from the mother's gamete and the other is from the father's gamete that united during fertilization.
A typical human somatic cell contains 46 chromosomes: 2 complete haploid sets, which make up 23 homologous chromosome pairs.
haploid number is the number of chromosomes that are half the diploid number of chromosomes.
diploid number of chromosomes is the number of chromosomes present in the cells of body of an organism.
