Answer:

allopolyploidy

Explanation:

Polyploidy is the condition by which a cell might have more than two chromosome sets that form homologous pairs. It might occur due to a failure or abnormality in cell division.  

Autopolyploidy

Refer to a type of polyploidy in which an organism has more than two copies of homologous chromosomes. It results from the duplication of a group of chromosomes of the same species. Autopolyploid individuals have <u>at least three groups of homologous chromosomes</u>. Autopolyploidy is produced by the<u> gamete fusion of the same progenitor - same species</u>-, duplicating the number of chromosomes of diploid species. The autopolyploid cell has groups of homologous chromosomes. Autopolyploidy is produced mainly due to non-disjunction during meiosis.

Allopolyploidy

Refer to another type of polyploidy in which species have more than three sets of chromosomes in their cells. Allopolyploidy <u>occurs when two different species mate</u>, leading to the fusion of gametes that belong to different species and produce a new hybrid. The chromosomic complement has more than two copies of chromosomes. The hybrid is infertile with the parental species. The allopolyploid cells have chromosome groups that are not homologous.  

In the exposed example two different species mate and produce a hybrid species.

This will lead to an  decreases  in the ATPs synthesis. This is because low pH , high acidity favours ATP synthesis, because it increases the  proton concentration for electrochemical gradients needed for energy that  ATPase enzymes makes used of   synthesis  of ATPs.

Therefore a rise in the pH(low acidity) lowers protons levels, and therefore reduced electrochemical gradients , with a drop in energy for ATPs synthesis.

True [87]
Grapes are a healthier choice because THEY PROVIDE FIBERS AND PHYTOCHEMICALS. 
Grapes are natural fruits which possess more nutrients and beneficial components much more than manufactured artificial drinks. Fruits have fibers which purge one's system and make it easier for one to eliminate wastes, it also have a lot of natural phytochemicals that have beneficial effects on human system.
