A species or type of a plant derived from doubling the chromosome of the F1 hybrid of two known species is known as__________________?
Correct answer: C. Amphidiploid
- A. Autodiploid
- B. Hexaploid
- C. Amphidiploid
- D. Autopolyploid
Explanation
Doubling the chromosomes of an F1 hybrid restores pairing between chromosomes from the two parent species and produces an amphidiploid, also called an allotetraploid. Autopolyploids arise from chromosome doubling within a single species.
