Why is it important for gametes to be haploid?

A. It is impossible for them to be diploid because reproduction does not result in diploidy.
B. they fuse to form a diploid organism so that there is the expected number of chromosomes.
C. neither parent has the full set of genetic information so each must contribute their half.
D. When gametes are made, the diploid cell splits twice, creating four haploid organisms.
