Question

which definition correctly describes a haploid cell during meiosis? a cell that has double the number of chromosomes as the parent cell a cell that has two complete sets of chromosomes a cell that has half the number of chromosomes as the daughter cell a cell that has one complete set of chromosomes

Explanation:

A haploid cell contains a single set of chromosomes. During meiosis, gametes (sperm and egg cells) are formed and are haploid. The other options are incorrect as a cell with double the number of chromosomes as the parent cell is not haploid, a cell with two complete sets of chromosomes is diploid, and a haploid cell has the same number of chromosomes as the daughter cell it gives rise to in the context of gamete - formation in meiosis.

Answer:

a cell that has one complete set of chromosomes
