Q. Haploids are more suitable for mutation studies because :

(a) Haploids are more abundant than diploids.

(b) Haploids are reproductive more stable

(c) All mutations whether dominant or recessive are expressed in haploids.

(d) Mutagens penetrate in haploids more effectively than diploids

Solution : Correct option : C Haploids have only one allele for a particular trait. This allele (either dominant or recessive) always expresses itself in absence of the other allele. Thus, all mutations whether dominant or recessive are expressed in haploids.
