A diploid cell in a plant undergoes chromosome duplication but fails to divide properly, initiating a tetraploid (4n) branch. Th

is branch produces a 4n flower. What can happen next?
The 4n flower produces 1n (haploid) gametes, which then cross-fertilize with gametes from the original diploid parent species to produce fertile offspring.
The tetraploid (4n) flower produces 2n gametes and may then be able to self-pollinate to produce fertile 4n offspring.
The 4n flower produces 4n (tetraploid) gametes, which then self-fertilize to produce fertile offspring.
The 4n flower produces 2n gametes, which then cross-fertilize with gametes from the original diploid parent species to produce fertile offspring.

The correct answer is: The tetraploid (4n) flower produces 2n gametes and may then be able to self-pollinate to produce fertile 4n offspring.  

Gametes are produced via meiosis, which is reduction cell division, meaning that cell from diploid (2n) becomes with haploid (n) number of chromosomes. In the example above, 4n flower will produce 2n gametes. Ovary of the flower produces ovule-the female gamete which is ready for fertilization. The anther produces pollen that lands on a mature stigma of a flower and grows a pollen tube down into the flower. Pollen then produces male gametes-sperm by mitosis and releases them for fertilization.

nekit [7.7K]
The answer is catastrophism.

Catastrophism is a theory explaining that the Earth has been affected by sudden catastrophes which created its geological features. Some of the proposed catastrophes is a global flood followed by an uplifting of some rock which happened sudden, in a short period of time. It is opposite theory to uniformitarianism which explains that the Earth was formed in slow changes.

Answer:

Explanation:

The main  function of the plasma membrane is to protect the cell from its surroundings. Made of a phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins, the plasma membrane is selectively permeable to ions and organic molecules it also regulates the movement of substances in and out of cells. Plasma membranes must be very flexible in order to allow certain cells, such as red blood cells and white blood cells, to change shape as they pass through narrow capillaries. Membrane receptors provide extracellular attachment sites for effectors like hormones and growth factors, which then trigger intracellular responses. Some viruses, such as Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), can intercept  these receptors to get into the cells, causing infections.
