The correct Answer is:
To determine which of the seven cells listed are haploid, we need to understand the ploidy level of each cell. Here’s a step-by-step analysis: ### Step 1: Understand the Definitions - **Haploid (n)**: Cells that contain one set of chromosomes. - **Diploid (2n)**: Cells that contain two sets of chromosomes. ### Step 2: Analyze Each Cell Type 1. **Antipodal Cell**: - Part of the embryo sac, derived from the megaspore (which is haploid). - **Ploidy**: Haploid (n). 2. **Fertilized Egg Cell**: - Formed by the fusion of male and female gametes (both haploid), resulting in a diploid zygote. - **Ploidy**: Diploid (2n). 3. **Synergid Cell**: - Also part of the embryo sac, derived from the megaspore. - **Ploidy**: Haploid (n). 4. **Polar Nucleus**: - Found in the embryo sac, it consists of two haploid nuclei that have not yet fused. - **Ploidy**: Haploid (n). 5. **Male Gamete**: - Produced by meiosis, thus it has one set of chromosomes. - **Ploidy**: Haploid (n). 6. **Nucellar Cell**: - Part of the ovule, which is diploid. - **Ploidy**: Diploid (2n). 7. **Integument Cell**: - Also part of the ovule, which is diploid. - **Ploidy**: Diploid (2n). ### Step 3: List the Haploid Cells From the analysis: - Antipodal Cell (I) - Haploid - Synergid Cell (III) - Haploid - Polar Nucleus (IV) - Haploid - Male Gamete (V) - Haploid ### Conclusion The haploid cells from the list provided are: - I. Antipodal Cell - III. Synergid Cell - IV. Polar Nucleus - V. Male Gamete Thus, the answer is: **I, III, IV, V**. ---
