- What is a Haploidarrow_forwardMost eukaryotic organisms reproduce sexually, but a few eukaryotic organisms, like Bdelloid rotifers, reproduce asexually. Which of the following describes the difference between the formation of cells in sexually reproducing eukaryotes and asexually reproducing rotifers? A - Sexually reproducing eukaryotes proceed through one stage of meiosis to produce haploid cells, while Bdelloid rotifers proceed through two divisions to produce diploid cells. B= Sexually reproducing eukaryotes proceed through two stages of meiosis to produce haploid cells, while Bdelloid rotifers only need to proceed through one division to produce diploid cells. C- DNA is replicated and divided once in the production of haploid cells in Bdelloid rotifers, while DNA is replicated and divided twice in the production of diploid cells in sexually reproducing eukaryotes.
