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.
I think the right answer is B but I don’t know
Answer
Just think critically about why (if you were an egg laying species), having a fetus/baby develop inside of you would be advantageous.
For one, eggs are much less protected from outside factors such as predators, temperature, etc than live birthed creatures. Live birth provides protection inside the mothers body from things such as heat, cold, moisture, predatory animals, etc. An egg laying animal must keep its eggs at a perfect temperature and check to make sure no other animal has eaten them.
