Chapter 24, Problem 8TYU

SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY • DRAW IT In this chapter, you read thut bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) is an allohexaploid, containing two sets of chromosomes from each of three different parent species. Genetic analysis suggests that the three species pictured following this question each contributed chromosome sets to T. aestivum. (The capital letters here represent sets of chromosomes rather than individual genes, and the diploid chromosome number for each species is shown in parentheses.)

Evidence also indicates that the first polyploidy event was a spontaneous hybridization of the early cultivated wheat species T. monococcum and a wild Triticum grass species. Based on this information, draw a diagram of one possible chain of events that could have produced the allohexaploid T. aestivum.

I need help with b, c, d the choices for c) are haploid, diploid or tetraploid  the choices for d) are same chromosome, a pair of homologus chromosomes, or two different chromosomes
Homologous Chromosomes We have discussed homologous chromosomes before. This idea is essential to the understanding of genetics, so we will review it again. Information • Very simple organisms have only one set of chromosomes and they are haploid. ► More complex organisms have two sets of chromosomes and are diploid. • Haploid organisms have one of each kind of chromosome and one of every kind of gene. Diploid organisms have two of each kind of chromosome and two of kind of gene. every The two chromosomes of each kind in a diploid organism are called homologous chromosomes because they are carrying the same kind of traits (genes). Homo means "same." ► A human has 23 different kinds of chromosomes that are given numbers from 1 to 23. Because we are diploid organisms we have two of each of the different kinds. So, we have 46 chromosomes in all, made up of 23 homologous pairs. ? QUESTION 1. How many sets of DNA molecules or chromosomes does a diploid organism have? 2. How many sets of DNA…
. Genomes A, B, and C all have basic chromosomenumbers (x) of nine. These genomes were derivedoriginally from plant species that had diverged from each other sufficiently far back in the evolutionarypast that the chromosomes from one genome can nolonger pair with the chromosomes from any other genome. For plants with the following kinds of euploidchromosome complements, (i) state the number ofchromosomes in the organism; (ii) provide terms thatdescribe the individual’s genetic makeup as accurately as possible; (iii) state whether or not it is likelythat this plant will be fertile, and if so, give the number of chromosomes (n) in the gametes.a.
