This diagram of the human life cycle shows that ________.
A)meiosis produces a diploid zygote
B)meiosis produces haploid sperm and egg cells
C)fertilization produces a haploid zygote
D)a diploid zygote undergoes meiosis to produce an adult human

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Meiosis is the process of cell division that produces haploid gametes (sperm and egg cells) in humans. These haploid cells combine during fertilization to form a diploid zygote, which undergoes mitosis and cell differentiation to develop into an adult human. Therefore, choice B is the best option as it accurately describes the production of haploid cells during meiosis and the role of fertilization in forming a diploid zygote.
