Solution

The correct options are
A

viviparous


B oviparous

Haploid cells have only one set of chromosomes, unlike a diploid cell, which has two sets of chromosomes. Haploid cells are formed by meiotic cell division. For example, sperm and ovum are haploid cells. Both these cells are produced by meiotic cell division and are involved in fertilisation to produce a diploid zygote.
