Which definition correctly describes a haploid cell during meiosis?

Aa cell that has double the number of chromosomes as the parent cell
Ba cell that has two complete sets of chromosomes
Ca cell that has half the number of chromosomes as the daughter cell
Da cell that has one complete set of chromosomes

Verified Answer :

Haploid cell is defined as  a cell which  contains one complete set of chromosomes.
therefore,
During meiosis haploid cell has one complete set of chromosomes.
hence the right option is D) a cell that has one complete set of chromosomes

Answer;

D) a cell that has one complete set of chromosomes.


Explanation;

During meiosis cells divide to give four daughter cells that have the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

The parent cell is a diploid; has two sets of chromosomes, and divides to give haploid daughter cells with a single set of chromosomes.

This type of cell division is used to form gametes (eggs and the sperms).
