The organism’s diploid number would be 16.

In most organisms, the diploid number (2n) is double the haploid number (n). The haploid number represents the number of chromosomes in a single set of chromosomes in sex cells (sperm or egg), while the diploid number represents the total number of chromosomes found in body (somatic) cells. Since the organism has 8 chromosomes in its haploid set (sex cells), its body cells would have double that amount, resulting in a diploid number of 16.
