How many genome types are present in a typical green plants cell?

A
More than five
B
More than ten
Correct answer
C
Two
D
Three

Solution

Since a typical green plant is diploid, therefore it has two sets of chromosomes. So the number of genome will be two, because genome is the entire set of gene carried by a gamete or present in the haploid cell of a particular organism.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
