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.

position vs time for two cars which statements best describe the motion of car a and car b check all that apply
jekas [21]

Answer:

Option 1, 2, 5

Explanation:

Options for the question

  1. car a and car b are both moving toward the origin.
  2. car a and car b are moving in opposite directions.
  3. car a is moving faster than car b.
  4. car a and car b started at the same location.
  5. car a and car b pass each other at the crossover  point on the graph.  time (s)

Solution -

The motion of any object is represented by  position-time In such graphs the position of an object is fixed for any starting point on the y-axis and time on the x-axis.

The slope of such curves determine the velocity of the object at all its position within the graph. The steeper the slope is, the faster the the object is moving.

Hence, the following statements are correct

Option 1, 2, 5
