Answer:

The correct answer is: it would create a polyploidy.

Explanation:

Polyploidy consists of an organism or a cell having more than 2 pairs of chromosomes, which in most species (including humans) is abnormal and not compatible with life.

An organism with 3 sets of chromosomes -69 in total- (instead of 46) has a triploidy. In humans, this happens when there's an extra haploid set from one of the parents.

An organism with 4 sets of chromosomes -92 in total- has tetraploidy.

These polyploidies result in miscarriage.

Carnivores, the meat eaters of the animal world, have very defined canine teeth for tearing at meat, combined with a sometimes limited number of molars.

Omnivores, because they eat both meat and plants, have a combination of sharp front teeth and molars for grinding.
