Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Polyploid organisms have additional sets of chromosomes, resulting in more than two copies of each chromosome. This can occur due to events like failed cytokinesis during cell division or fusion of multiple gametes. Organisms with multiple genomes are called allopolyploid, but not all polyploids have multiple genomes.
