Explain the Variations of Euploidy?

Expert Solution
Check Mark
Step 1

Variations in species exist due to variations in the chromosome structure as well as the chromosome number. Chromosomes occur in one or more sets. Chromosome variations occur either in a number of chromosome sets or in a particular chromosome within a set.
