Mitosis of a haploid cell, a diploid cell, or both, results in the growth of multicellular bodies

What will be an ideal response?


Most eukaryotic life cycles have three parts: (1 ) Sexual reproduction combines haploid gametes to form a diploid cell. (2 ) At some point in the life cycle, diploid cells undergo meiotic cell division to produce haploid cells. (3 ) Mitosis of a haploid cell, a diploid cell, or both, results in the growth of multicellular bodies.
