A cell at telophase stage is observed by a student in a plant brought from the field. He tells his teacher that this cell is not like other cells at telophase stage. There is no formation of cell plate and thus the cell is containing more number of chromosomes as compared to other dividing cells. This would result in:
Aneuploidy
Polyploidy
Somaclonal variation
Polyteny
Euploidy -
Type of chromosomal numerical mutation due to gain or loss of one or more genomes
- wherein
2 types
Polyploidy cells have a chromosome number that is more than double the haploid number.

Option 2)
Polyploidy
This is correct option
Option 3)
