Diploid plants have two sets of chromosomes. Polyploid plants have more than two sets of chromosomes, are often larger, and have more desirable characteristics. To create polyploid plants, plant breeders can treat diploid plants with a chemical that prevents the separation of sister chromatids during mitosis. Resulting cells that have any partial chromosome sets, even if in addition to one or more complete chromosome sets, typically do not survive this process. If a diploid plant cell treated with such a chemical goes through a single round of mitosis, what is the MOST LIKELY genetic composition of the resulting cells that survive? A These cells will be haploid, each having one complete set of chromosomes. B These cells will be triploid, each having three complete sets of chromosomes. C These cells will be tetraploid, each having four complete sets of chromosomes. D These cells will be octaploid, each having eight complete sets of chromosomes.
