Solution
The correct option is A Diploid
In sexually reproducing organisms, the cells that give rise to the gametes are called germ cells.
In human beings, the germ cells are diploid. They undergo meiosis to produce the haploid gametes.
Spermatogonia present in the seminiferous tubules of testis are male germ cells and oogonia present inside the ovary are female germ cells.
