Which type of cell is a result of meiosis?

diploid cells

haploid cells

The correct answer is haploid cells.

Explanation:

A kind of cell differentiation in which the number of chromosomes present in the cell of the parent gets reduced by half and gives rise to four gamete cells is known as meiosis. During sexual reproduction, the process of meiosis is used to generate gametes in the form of sperm and egg cells.

The process of meiosis generally begins in the diploid parent cell, that is, the cell exhibiting two chromosomes copies. In the process, the parent cell goes through the process of replication of DNA, which is followed by two distinguished nuclear division cycles. In the process, the diploid cell, eventually gives rise to haploid daughter cells, which are four in number, showing that each comprising half of the number of chromosomes found in the parent cell, which was diploid.
