Hi! Thanks for your question. As you have posted multiple questions and have not mentioned which one is to be answered, we are answering only the first question for you. If you need help with the other questions too, please re-post them separately.

Selfing is a kind of inbreeding mechanism where the fertilization occurs between the male and female gametes in the same organism which may be haploid or diploid or polyploid.
