g Two closely related species of plant (A and B) hybridize to form a new species (C). Species A is diploid and has 8 chromosomes. Species B is tetraploid and has 20 chromosomes. -What type of whole genome duplication is this (autopolyploidy or allopolyploidy)

allopolyploidy

Explanation:

Polyploidy is the condition by which a cell might have more than two chromosome sets that form homologous pairs. It might occur due to a failure or abnormality in cell division.  

Autopolyploidy

Refer to a type of polyploidy in which an organism has more than two copies of homologous chromosomes. It results from the duplication of a group of chromosomes of the same species. Autopolyploid individuals have at least three groups of homologous chromosomes. Autopolyploidy is produced by the gamete fusion of the same progenitor - same species-, duplicating the number of chromosomes of diploid species. The autopolyploid cell has groups of homologous chromosomes. Autopolyploidy is produced mainly due to non-disjunction during meiosis.

Allopolyploidy

Refer to another type of polyploidy in which species have more than three sets of chromosomes in their cells. Allopolyploidy occurs when two different species mate, leading to the fusion of gametes that belong to different species and produce a new hybrid. The chromosomic complement has more than two copies of chromosomes. The hybrid is infertile with the parental species. The allopolyploid cells have chromosome groups that are not homologous.  

In the exposed example two different species mate and produce a hybrid species.

yes you are doing it right great gob

answer; i believe the correct answer is (data); /// good luck
