Q.

In which animal do haploid cells divide mitotically to produce gametes?

  1. A

    Male honeybees

  2. B

    Male earthworms

  3. C

    Male frogs

  4. D

    Male grasshoppers

Solution

Male honeybees are haploid (drones develop from unfertilised eggs). They produce sperms by mitosis rather than meiosis, since meiosis cannot occur from an already haploid cell.
