The phenomenon of occurrence of multiple chromosomes in plants is known as polyploidy.
The very basic cause of multiple chromosome formation is related with inhibition of spindle formation during mitosis. Other cause are due to hybridization etc.

How many sets of chromosomes do polyploids have in their cell?
More than two sets of chromosomes
How many chromosomes does a tulip?
Two sets for twelve chromosomes.
If a organism has 2N8 how many chromosomes does it have?
it has two sets of chromosomes
If a haploid is considered as one set of chromosomes then what are two sets of chromosomes considered as?
the prefix di- means 2. so a diploid is two sets of chromosomes.
What are two sets of chromosomes that code for the same trate?
Homologous Chromosomes.
How mant sets of chromosomes are in a diploid cell?
diploid cells have double set of chromosomes. It varies across species. For example, diploid human cell has 46 chromosomes, while a cell of carp fish has about 100 chromosomes, very roughly.
What species other than humans have a haploid number of 23 chromosomes?
Ploidy is another species that has 23 chromosomes. Many organisms have more than two sets of homologous chromosomes.

If a haploid is considered as one set of chromosomes then what are two sets of chromosomes considered as?
the prefix di- means 2. so a diploid is two sets of chromosomes.
How are haploid and diploid related?
Haploid refers to having only one set of chromosomes, while diploid refers to having two sets of chromosomes. Body cells are diploid, while sex cells are haploid. In humans, diploid cells have two sets of 23 chromosomes for a total of 46, and haploid cells have one set of 23 chromosomes.
What are two sets of chromosomes that code for the same trate?
Homologous Chromosomes.
Why do modern roses have more chromosomes than there ancestors?
Most higher organisms are diploid, which means that they have two sets of chromosomes. Plant breeding often leads to polyploidy, or the presence of extra sets of chromosomes. For example, roses are supposed to have 14 chromosomes (two sets of 7). Some rose hybrids have 21, 28, 35 or 42 chromosomes. Plants are able to expand their genome to allow for greater variety. The same isn't true for humans. Even one extra chromosome in humans can lead to birth defects, mental deficiency and even fetal demise.
What is a group of two chromosomes?
Having two sets of chromosomes is the diploid condition.
