Explain the terms haploid, diploid, and polyploid. Why is polyploidy so much more common in plants than in animals? Give examples of polyploid animals. Polyploid plants may occur naturally or they may be created intentionally by agricultural scientists. List four examples of polyploid commercial crops and explain why they are superior to their diploid ancestors.
