What would be the number of chromosomes in the cells of the aleuron layer in a plant species with 8 chromosomes in its synergids?

- 24
- 32
- 8
- 16
Correct Option: A
Aleurone layer is the layer formed by the endospermic tissue in the members of family Graminae eg. wheat, rice, maize etc. Obviously it will be a triploid tissue. So if synergids have 8 no. of chromosomes which are haploid than aleurone- layer must have 24 chromosomes.
