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.

Elements and compounds are pure substances that cannot be broken down physically into a simpler substance. a physical change doesn’t break the bonds between atoms of a substance or form new ones. compounds can be broken down by a chemical change. a chemical change breaks chemical bonds and/or forms new ones between atoms of a substance. what simple substance would a compound break into? the basic elements that make it up! for example, if you passed a very strong electric current through water you’d break the chemical bonds in water and be left with oxygen and hydrogen. which of the following is an example of a chemical change? a separating water into different glasses b breaking frozen ice cubes with a hammer c running an electric current through water d boiling water to evaporate it on a stove
