Question

the sequence of events illustrated in this figure results in a fertile hybrid plant called an allopolyploid. which of the following statements is the most complete description of an allopolyploid? it is able to sexually reproduce with two or more other plant species because of its diverse set of chromosomes. it contains more than two sets of chromosomes, which are derived from two species. it contains more than one pair of homologous chromosomes. it contains more than two sets of chromosomes, which are derived from a single species.

Explanation:

Allopolyploids are polyploids formed from the hybridization of two different species, and they contain more than two sets of chromosomes derived from two species. The first option is incorrect as it mis - states the reproductive ability. The third option is too general as many normal diploids also have more than one pair of homologous chromosomes. The fourth option describes autopolyploids, not allopolyploids.

Answer:

It contains more than two sets of chromosomes, which are derived from two species.
