Asked by Sarah
If plant species has a diploid number of 12 and plant species B has a diploid number of 16. What would a new species, C, that arises as an allopolyploid from A and B, diploid number be?
I was thinking 14, because it would get 6 sets from plant A and 8 from plant B. Does that seem correct?
THANK YOU!

It does seem correct, but it is hard to believe that viable offspring would develop.
I hope this helps a little. Thanks for asking.
