Question

A gamete of bryophyte has 24 chromosomes. Calculate the number of chromosomes in the G2 phase in the rhizoids of bryophyte.

Moderate
Solution

The main plant body of the bryophyte is haploid.  The gametes in bryophytes are produced by mitosis and not by meiosis. Hence, if the number of chromosomes in the gamete is 24. Then the same number of chromosomes will be present in the rhizoids of bryophytes in G2 phase.
