Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

A diploid is the combination of 2 sets of chromosomes, a haploid would be half which in this case would be 16, We know that 2 haploids make a diploid so if the diploid cell has 32 chromosomes then half of it would be 16 which would be the amount you will find in the haploid, hope that makes sense
