What is correct when chromosome number in leaf cells of an angiosperm is 22

A. 44 in stem cells

B. 44 in embryo

C. 22 in gametes

D. 11 in gametes

Answer: Option D

Solution (By Examveda Team)

When the chromosome number in leaf cells of an angiosperm is 22, 11 in gametes is the correct option.
The angiospermic leaf cell is diploid in nature that is 2n, therefore, if the chromosome number in the leaf cell is 22, that means, each gamete will have half the number as gametes are haploid.
