  1. haploidy

    Haploidy is a state or condition in which an organism or cell has a single set of unpaired chromosomes. This is often represented as "n," and is half the "diploid" number of chromosomes ("2n") that is typically found in somatic cells. Haploidy is common in gametes (sperm and egg cells) and is one of the key mechanisms in sexual reproduction and genetic diversity.
