the Cavendish banana, the world's most popular fruit, is currently threatened by extinction due to a fungus. This banana variety is "triploid" and can only reproduce through cloning by cultivaors. Ginven what you know about meiosis, expalin how the banana's triploid number accounts for its inablility to form normal gametes. Considering genetic diversity, discuss how the absence of sexual reproduction might make this domesticated species.
