plz answer the question.......

Answer 1

48 is the answer.

Since the male gamete has 24 chromosomes, and the female gamete has 24 chromosomes, the number of chromosomes in the zygote of a tobacco plant shall be the sum of both, ie. 48, as the zygote is formed only after fertilization of both the male and the female gamete.

Answer 2

Answer:

if the male has 24 chromosomes then the female would also have the same number of chromosomes i.e. 24 and zygote would have 24 + 24 = 48 chromosomes

hope it helps!
