Most tetraploid organisms are fertile because they have four chromosomes. Triploids on the other hand have three chromosomes which make it infertile.
Tetraploid refers to a cell, organism, or species that contains four sets of chromosomes. This is double the normal diploid number of chromosomes found in most organisms. Tetraploidy can arise through various mechanisms such as cell division errors or hybridization events.
A tetraploid organism has four sets of chromosomes, denoted as 4n. Since a haploid set contains one complete set of chromosomes, a tetraploid has four haploid sets. Therefore, a tetraploid (4n) has four haploid sets (n).

Yes
hexaploid
No, only organism in the same species can produce fertile offspring. Organisms from the same class sometimes can reproduce, but they cannot produce fertile offspring.
Organisms that belong to the same species can reproduce a fertile offspring.
Organisms that can interbreed and produce fertile offspring belong to the same species classification. Organisms within a species share similar characteristics and can reproduce to create viable offspring.
species
A tetraploid potato cell would contain four sets of chromosomes, so a gametic cell would contain half that amount, which is two sets (diploid). This means a tetraploid potato gametic cell would contain 48 chromosomes.
Then they are the same species.
