(B) In the haplo-diploid sex determination system (e.g.,in honeybees),the males are haploid $(n)$ and females are diploid $(2n)$.Since the male is already haploid,it cannot undergo meiosis to produce gametes because meiosis reduces the chromosome number by half.Therefore,males produce sperm (gametes) through the process of mitosis.This ensures that the sperm contains the same haploid set of chromosomes as the parent.
