Answer:
A. aneuploidy; trisomic
Explanation:
Aneuploidy means having more numbers of chromosomes than usual while polyploidy means having an abnormal number of chromosome sets. Down syndrome is a trisomy on chromosome 21 meaning there are 3 chromosomes for chromosome set 21.
<span>The organism will produce 12 chromosomes (A).
Sex cells are the products of meiosis. Daughter cells of meiosis contain half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell. So if the parent cell has 24 chromosomes, then the sex cell would have <em>12 chromosomes</em>.</span>
<span>Flowering plants (angiosperms) have a more reliable method of pollination than gymnosperms. Flowering plants use animals and insects while gymnosperms rely on wind for pollination. </span>
