If diploid number of chromosomes in a plant is 40, then the number of chromosomes in a gamete will be
Options
(a) 40
(b) 30
(c) 20
(d) 10
Correct Answer:
20

In plants, gametes are formed by a redution division, i.e., meiosis. Number of chromosomes became half in number, therefore gametes contain half chromosomes number.
Here, 2n=40. So, n=20.
