Textbook Question
Chapter 24, Problem 3IQ
- a. A new plant species 8 forms by autopolyploidy from species A, which has a chromosome number of 2n = 10. How many chromosomes would species 8 have?
- b. If species A were to hybridize with species C (2n = 14) and produce a new allopolyploid species D, how many chromosomes would species D have?

Species I is diploid (2n=8) with chromosomes AABBCCDD. Related species II is diploid (2n=8) with chromosomes MMNNOOPP. Individuals with the ff. sets of chromosomes represent what types of chromosome mutations (be very specific)? Give the level of ploidy (in equation form) and resultant chromosome number for each plant.
AABBCCCCDD (c) MMNNOOOPPP (e) AABBCDD
AABBDD (d) AABBCCDDMNOP
Use two different colors to depict the unduplicated chromosomes of species C with larger chromosomes (2n = 8) and species D with slightly smaller chromosomes (2n =10), and of their F1 hybrid. Is the hybrid likely to befertile?
Species A has 2 n = 10 chromosomes. Species B has 2 n = 40 chromosomes. On average, will two randomly selected genes from species A be more likely, less likely, or equally likely to assort independently than two randomly selected genes from species B? Explain your reasoning.

- You have four sequences from A-D representing four species: A: AAATTGATTAC B: TAATTGGTTAC C: AAATTGGTTGA D: AAATTGATTGA A is your outgroup. Take a piece of paper and illustrate the three possible trees that are different from each other. 1) Answer the question of why there are only three trees. Aren't there more trees possible? 2) Mark the changes in nucleotides that happen among the four species on the trees or write them down separately. Then calculate the shortest possible tree. This is the most parsimonious option. Which one is it? 3) Why does this tree not necessarily depict the true relationship among the four species? Illustrate and answer all questions on paper. Then take a picture of the paper with your cell phone. Make sure everything is in focus, i.e., go over the picture and take it again, if necessary. All your answers and the trees need to be clearly visible.arrow_forwardSpecies A has 2 n = 16 and species B has 2 n = 14.
