Is the chromosome number of zygote, embryonal cells and adult of a particular organism always constant? How is the constancy maintained in these three stages?

उत्तर
Mitosis is a cell division which results in the formation of two daughter cells from a cell with the same number of chromosomes. Zygote undergoes mitotic divisions to develop into an embryo which in turn, also undergoes mitotic divisions to become an adult. So, the constancy of chromosomes is maintained in these three stages.

When an insect sits on the flower of a plant then some particles A present in the top of little stalks in the flower attach to its body hair. When this insect now sits on the flower of another similar plant, then particles A attached to the hair of insect are put on the top of a flask-shaped organ at the centre of flower. The particle A grows a long tube b from the top of flask-shaped organ through which C moves down and reaches the bottom part of flask-shaped organ. Here C fuses with the nucleus of d contained in structure E. the fusion of C and D forms a new cell f which grows and develops into a seed of the plant.
