A plant with many sets of chromosomes is an example of a what organism?
A polyploid
What is three copies of chromosomes known as?
Polyploid or triploid.
What is polyploidy and how are polyploid plants different from diploid plants?
are unable to interbreed with a diploid plant.
How many chromosomes do a fertilized egg of a human have?
After fertilization all normal human cells contain the same number of chromosomes as the cells of an adult human - 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes. Before fertilization the ovum contains only 23 chromosomes. A second 23 chromosomes are provided by the sperm during fertilization.
What do Most polyploid plants arise as a result of?
HYBRIDIZATION
A plant with many sets of chromosomes is an example of a what organism?
A polyploid
Organisms with three or more sets of chromosomes are called?
polyploid
How many chromosomes does a sugar cane have?
due to polyploid nature no of chromosomes are not fixed, though they might be 20-128.
What is a species with a multiple set of chromosomes?
polyploid
Any species with a multiple set of chromosomes is?
Organisms that have more than two complete sets of chromosomes are said to be polyploid. This often occurs in plants.
What is three copies of chromosomes known as?
Polyploid or triploid.
Any species with a multiple set of chromosomes is known as?
Polyploid
What organisms with three or more sets of chromosomes called?
polyploid
What are polyploidy and when is this condition useful?
Polyploidy allows the formation of new species derived from different ancestors. Polyploid is the condition in which an organism has extra sets of chromosomes.
What term reffers to the occourrance of one or more sets of extra chromosomes in an organism?
a polyploid
What types of organisms are polyploid?
Some animals, such as goldfish, salmon, and salamanders are polyploid, but it is more common among ferns and flowering plants. Hibiscus rosa-sinensis is an example. Wheat has strains that are diploid (2 sets of chromosomes) , tetraploid (four sets of chromosomes), and hexaploid (six sets of chromosomes). Many members of the genus Brassica are tetraploids. Polyploidy may occur due to abnormal cell division, either during mitosis, or commonly during metaphase I in meiosis.
What is polyploidy and how are polyploid plants different from diploid plants?
are unable to interbreed with a diploid plant.
