Question

If a diploid cell is treated with COLCHICINE, then it becomes???1) MONOPLOID........2) DIPLOID..........3)TRIPLOID........4) TETRAPLOID......pls explain with relevant reason !! :)

Answer 1

The correct option is Option D i.e. Tetraploid.

Explanation:

• Colchicine is compound derived from a plant called Colchicum sp.
• It is a compound that destroys the spindle fibres by disintegrating the polymerization of monomers of spindle fibre.  
• So, the cells fail to undergo proper mitosis and a cell is formed with two sets of chromosome.
• So, if a diploid cell with two sets of chromosome will become a set of four chromosomes. So, the cell will become a Tetraploid cell.
