Answer #1

Answer:

option triploid is correct.

Explanation:

  • Haploid is single complete set of chromosomes and termed as monoploid.
  • Diploid means two sets of chromosomes (2n).
  • Triploid is the three sets of the haploid chromosomes.
  • Tetraploid is a four sets of chromosomes.
  • Aneuploid is the condition when one or more chromosomes present or loss inthe haploid set of chromosomes.

Therefore in the above question diploid number of chromosomes is 24. 2n = 24 ; n = 12

triploid : 3n= 3*12 = 36.
