Answer 1

Answer:

Triploid

Explanation:

1) Triploidy is a rare chromosomal abnormality in which fetuses are born with an extra set of chromosomes in their cells. One set of chromosomes has 23 chromosomes. This is called a haploid set. Two sets, or 46 chromosomes, are called a diploid set. Three sets, or 69 chromosomes, are called a triploid set.

Aneuploidy is defined as a chromosome number that deviates from a multiple of the haploid set, and it is associated with abnormalities in cell function, such as in cancer and in organismal development such as in Down syndrome (DS) and mosaic variegated aneuploidy (MVA)
