The varieties of chrysanthemums containing all multiples of nine chromosomes are autopolyploids. Their karyotypes share the feature of an even number of basic haploid chromosome sets.  

Autopolyploids are described as the chromosome sets of an individual when more than two sets of chromosomes are present. They are specifically from the same specie. They can occur when pair of homologous chromosomes have not separated into different nuclei during meiosis. Since, during meiosis, the chromosome sets are separated equally thus karyotypes have an equal number of haploid chromosomes.

Organisms with 27 chromosomes are Triploids(3n) that are sterile because Trivalents at meiosis 1 would form a high number of unbalanced gametes to be formed.

The dot plot shows the number of songs in a play list. Determine the mean of the data set. A) 39 B) 40 C) 41 D) 42
qwelly [4]
To calculate the mean all you have to do is add all the numbers from the data set and then divide the answer between the number of data set. For example, if you data set is 2,3,4,5,6,then you add 2+3+4+5+6=20 Now you divide 20 between the total number of data, so from 2 to 6 you have 5 numbers. You divide 20/5 and that that is equal to 4. 

Since you did not post your data set I can not tell you exactly the answer but you can use this information to walk you through it.

4. How might Douglass' reliability as an author be called into question for his piece Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglas
Yuki888 [10]
It might be stated that his reliability might be compromised because he writes the story many years later and his memories may be skewed. he is the narrator and the protagonist of the story and it is written in first person so  he retells what he remembers from his life experience since he was a child.
