Question

A. monoploid nuclei
B. centrioles
C. the diploid condition
D. chloroplasts

please help me lol

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Diploid condition

Explanation:

A Karyotype is the pictorial display that shows chromosome arrangement and number in a cell. The Karyotype shows any abnormalities in the nuclear material (chromosomes). In a carrot plant that was cloned from carrot root, the clones should possess the same features as the original plant.

A Karyotype of both plants i.e. clone and the original plant should show that their cells have a diploid number of chromosomes i.e. Two sets of chromosomes. Since a carrot plant is a diploid organism.
