All of the following animal cells are diploid except one gametic, muscles, nerve, skin, reproductive organ?

READ your biology text!

Hint - first read the definitions for

Diploid cells
Gametic cells
Muscle cells
Skin cells
Nerve cells
Reproductive organ

And then, search for each of those terms in you text book(through index) and... READ the relevant sections of text


Ask your teacher if you atill have trouble

Hi,

It's a while since this question was posted - but in case anyone is still hoping for a *useful* reply...

First look at the word "diploid"...
It is di-ploid I.e. "two-ploid"

The opposite, a bit confusingly is haploid, or "half-ploid" ("ploid" is a greek word meaning "form"), and in this particular case is referring to the form of the DNA in the cell. So some cells have two forms, and some have one... So what is it? It is either two forms of DNA or one form of DNA - specifically the cell has either one copy of each chromosome, or two copies of each chromosome. The diploid cell has two copies, and the haploid cell one copy. So your gametes have only one copy of each chromosome, in that they are the reproductive cells (sperm and eggs) - for more you really will have to read your text book!
