A cell at the telophase stage is observed by a student in a plant brought from the field. He tells his teacher that this cell is not like other cells at the telophase stage. There is no formation of a cell plate and thus the cell is containing more chromosomes as compared to other dividing cells. This would result in:

1. polyploidy

2. somaclonal variation

3. polyteny

4. aneuploidy

The movement of a gene from one linkage group to another is called:

If a chiasma forms between the loci of genes A and B in 20% of the tetrads of an individual of genotype AB/ab, the percentage of gametes expected to be Ab is:

1. 40

2. 20

3. 10

4. 5

Phenotype of an organism is the result of:

1. mutations and linkages
