Question
AABB is the notation for tetraploid wheat while AABBDD is the notation for ____________ wheat.
Select one:
- a. Hexaploid
- b. Diploid
- c. Tetraploid
- d. Triploid
Solution
The correct answer is a. Hexaploid.
This is because the notation AABBDD represents three sets of homologous chromosomes. In terms of ploidy level, this is referred to as hexaploid.
In general, the ploidy level is determined by the number of sets of chromosomes in a cell. Diploid organisms have two sets of chromosomes (one from each parent), tetraploid organisms have four sets of chromosomes, and hexaploid organisms have six sets of chromosomes.
Therefore, AABB represents a tetraploid organism (four sets of chromosomes), while AABBDD represents a hexaploid organism (six sets of chromosomes).
