Question
Chapter 24.2, Problem 1LO
Summary Introduction
To determine: The difference between autopolyploidy and allopolyploidy.
Introduction: Polyploidy occurs when the cells undergokaryokinesis (a division of the nucleus) but fail to undergo cytokinesis (a division of the cytoplasm). This results in an increase in the haploid sets of chromosomes in the cells. The polyploidy might give rise to triploid, tetraploid, hexaploid organisms.

Qualitatively,it looked just the same as the others, except much larger. Is it more likely to be an allopolyploid or anautopolyploid? How would you test that it was a polyploid and not just growing in rich soil?arrow_forwardAlloploids are produced by crosses involving two different species. Explain why alloploids may be reproductively isolated from the two original species from which they were derived. Explain why alloploids are usually sterile, whereas allotetraploids (containing a diploid set from each species) are commonly fertile.arrow_forward
