A triploid plant has 18 chromosomes (i.e., 6 chromosomes perset). If we assume a gamete has an equal probability of receivingone or two copies of each of the six types of chromosome, whatare the odds of this plant producing a haploid or a diploid gamete?What are the odds of producing an aneuploid gamete? If theplant is allowed to self-fertilize, what are the odds of producing aeuploid offspring?
In the moss Polytrichum commune, the haploidchromosome number is 7. A haploid male gametefuses with a haploid female gamete to form a diploid cell that divides and develops into the multicellular sporophyte. Cells of the sporophyte thenundergo meiosis to produce haploid cells calledspores. What is the probability that an individualspore will contain a set of chromosomes all ofwhich came from the male gamete?
Suppose that meiosis occurs in the transient diploid stageof the cycle of a haploid organism of chromosome number n. What is the probability that an individual haploidcell resulting from the meiotic division will have a complete parental set of centromeres (that is, a set all fromone parent or all from the other parent)?
All of the following cells, shown in various stages of mitosis and meiosis, come from the same rare species of plant. a. What is the diploid number of chromosomes in this plant? b. Give the names of each stage of mitosis or meiosis shown. c. Give the number of chromosomes and number of DNA molecules per cell present at each stage.
