Multiple Choice
Wild oysters are diploid and have 20 chromosomes in somatic cells. Scientists have generated tetraploid oysters using colchicine to prevent separation of sister chromatids. Crossing a diploid oyster with a tetraploid oyster resulted in triploid oysters that are commercially advantageous because they are larger and do not have a reproductive phase that usually interrupts the harvesting season.

A) 5
