The 19 pages that link to Diploid, each with the reason it gives.

• MeiosisRelated: The usual meiotic starting cell contains homologous pairs.

• ZygoteRelated: Fertilization restores the diploid chromosome complement in many animals.

• Sexual reproductionRelated: Most sexual life cycles alternate haploid gametes with diploid stages.

• KaryotypeRelated: Most human somatic-cell karyotypes display two copies of each autosome.

• Alternation of generationsRelated: The sporophyte is multicellular and diploid.

• Homologous chromosomesRelated: Diploid cells contain homologous chromosome pairs.

• Somatic cellRelated: Most human somatic cells carry two chromosome sets.

• HeterozygousRelated: Two chromosome copies usually provide the pair of alleles compared.

• EinkornRelated: Einkorn’s two chromosome sets distinguish it from polyploid bread and durum wheats.

• HomozygousRelated: Diploidy supplies the two allele copies compared in ordinary homozygosity.

• Biological life cycleRelated: Diploid stages are one of the chromosome states that define many life cycles.
