Answer:

The correct answer is "haploid".

Step-by-step explanation:

Haploid is a term used to describe a cell that has half the number of chromosomes that usually has. For instance, in humans the body cells are diploid while the reproductive cells are haploid. The haploid life cycle is found in the simplest eukaryotic animals, usually single-celled organisms. Two examples of this simplest animals are green algae and yeasts.
