NEET2026Biology
Q.
In which animal do haploid cells divide mitotically to produce gametes?
- A
Male honeybees
- B
Male earthworms
- C
Male frogs
- 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.
