Answers

Answered by maya51

Germ cells have only half the number of chromosomes as a diploid cell � one of each pair. The number of chromosomes is reduced from 46 (23pairs) to 23 during the process of meiosis. Because they have only half the total chromosomes in a somatic cell, they are termed haploid (n).
