A cross between a diploid individual and a tetraploid individual produces triploid offspring.  There are many species of plants that are triploid, but those come from crosses between two triploid individuals. In those cases, the chromosomes from one parent match up with the chromosomes from the other parent just fine. The same is not true with a cross of a tetraploid and a diploid.  In that case, one third of the chromosomes are unmatch, causing many offspring to die, to be sterile, or to be generally unfit.  Long story short, the answer you seek is False.

The answer is asexual reproduction. This type of reproduction does not involve fusion of gametes. The offspring arise from a single organism and inherit the genes of that parent only. Consequently, there is little variation from parent compared to sexual reproduction.

Evidence for coordinated stasis is found in ____.
KonstantinChe [14]

The correct answer is option (A) the fossil record.

Coordinated stasis refers to the stasis or the no evolutionary changes in the organisms for millions of years, which is followed by extinction and formation of the new species.

Fossil records have the evidence of ecological and evolutionary stability in the species over a long period of geological time scale separated by intervals of abrupt change. The best example of this being the animals of the Middle Devonian Hamilton group. Thus, fossil record is the only source of record showing this long period of stasis and separated by periods of abrupt changes in the species due to environmental pressures.

eduard

Answer: C) The event at the end of the Triassic Resulted in the extinction of fewer fauna’s then in any other period

Explanation:

Looking at the graph, the event at the end of the Triassic resulted in the smallest dip in the amount of fauna in the graph. This means that this event resulted in the extinction of fewer faunas than any of the other five major events.

Option A is wrong as the event at the end of the Devonian decreased the number of Cambrian fauna.

Option B is wrong as the event at the end of the Cretaceous resulted in a decrease in the Paleozoic fauna.

Option D is wrong because the event that resulted in the Extinction of more fauna’s then in any other period was the event at the end of the Permian.
