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.

How to zoos affect the nitrogen cycle
SpyIntel [72]
<span>As humans change the way we live on the planet, the way that nitrogen moves around the Earth also changes. Nitrogen atoms may seem small enough to be easily overlooked. We look right through the ones in the air, do we not? Yet recent changes in the nitrogen cycle are causing a very noticeable effect on natural environments and human health. Lakes are clogged with aquatic weeds. Dead zones have formed in areas of the oceans where animals can not survive. Air pollutants that contain nitrogen are decreasing air quality and greenhouse gases that contain nitrogen are becoming more common.</span>

In which sphere does condensation occur? A) Hydrosphere B) Lithosphere C) Biosphere D) Atmosphere
lawyer [7]
<span>The answer is D) atmosphere. There are four spheres of the Earth: 1. Lithosphere (from Greek word 'lithos' = rock), 2. Hydrosphere (from Greek word 'hydros' = water), 3. Biosphere (from Greek word 'bios' = life), and 4. Atmosphere (from Greek word 'atmos' = air). Condensation is the change of water vapour into the water, i.e. the change of water from its gaseous form into liquid form. Since water vapour is the part of air, condensation occur in the atmosphere.</span>
