Elaine Campos · Answer 1

I believe these are the followings:

Haploid cells join to form an organism that has half the number of chromosomes as the parent

Haploid cells join to form an organism that has a complete set of chromosomes.

Haploid cells join to form an organism that has double the number of chromosomes as the parent.

Haploid cells join to form an organism that is genetically identical to the parent.

Therefore the second one is the statement that best explains why meiosis produces Haploid cells rather than Diploid cells

Haploid cells join to form an organism that has a complete set of chromosomes.
