    In the moss Polytrichum commune, the haploid chromosome number is 7. A haploid male gamete fuses with a haploid female gamete to form a diploid cell that divides and develops into the multicellular sporophyte. Cells of the sporophyte undergo meiosis to produce haploid cells called spores. What is the probability that an individual spore will contain a set of chromosomes all of which came from the male gamete? (You may assume that no crossing over occurs during meiosis.) 0 0.5...

    Watermelons can have varying ploidies. Ploidy refers to the number of each chromosome present in a somatic cell. For example, most varieties are diploid that contains two copies of each chromosome, while some are tetraploid which contain four copies of each chromosome. Seedless varieties are triploid which have three copies of each chromosome that are present. Armed with the knowledge that seeds are plant embryos that have the potential to become a mature plant (and therefore are comparable to human...

    When a cell reproduces by mitosis and cytoplasmic division, does its life end? The diploid chromosome number for the body cells of a frog is 26. What would that number be after three generations if meiosis did not occur prior to gamete formation? Explain your answer. Why do you think that sexual reproduction tends to give rise to greater genetic diversity among offspring in fewer generations than asexual reproduction does?
