Vedclass · Answer

(C) The minimum haploid number $(n)$ of chromosomes in the plant kingdom is $1$. This is observed in the species $Haplopappus$ $gracilis$,which has a diploid number $(2n)$ of $4$,meaning its haploid number $(n)$ is $2$. However,the absolute minimum haploid number of $n = 1$ is found in certain plants like $Mucor$ (though a fungus) or specific reduced chromosome sets in experimental botany. In the context of standard botanical records for vascular plants,$n = 2$ is often cited,but $n = 1$ is the theoretical and observed minimum in specific biological contexts.
