Q:Answer the following question given this paragraph: Early land plants also evolved a dominant sporophyte generation. Sporophytes are diploid, so they have two copies of each gene. This gives them a "back-up" copy in case of mutation. This was important for coping with the strong solar radiation and higher risk of mutations on land. Q: What does it mean to be a diploid organism? Choices: - yolk has two copies of each gene - taproot has two copies of each gene - micelles have two copies of each gene - organism has two copies of each gene A:
A:
organism has two copies of each gene
