A haploid cell with have a haploid number, which is the number of chromosomes found within the nucleus that create one set. In humans, the haploid cells have 23 chromosomes, versus the 46 in the diploid cells. There is a difference between haploid and monoploid cells. Haploid cells have one complete set of chromosomes, whereas the term monoploid refers to the number of unique chromosomes in a biological cell. In diploid organisms, diploid cells contain the complete set of necessary chromosomes, while haploid have only half the number of chromosomes found in the nucleus.
Haploid is half this number of chromosomes and is the result of meiosis, where as diploid is the result of normal cellular mitosis (as well as the result of fertilization). Haploid and diploid are terms which refer to the number of copies of a chromosome that are found in the genome of an organism.
