Which of the meiotic pairing possibilities in tetraploids and their consequence is correct?

A-chromosomes pair as bivalents, segregate normally producing diploid gametes.

B- Chromosomes pair as quadrivalent, segregates normally producing tetraploid gametes.

C-Chromosome pair as Trivalents form, segregation leads to nonfunctional aneuploid gametes

 D- Chromosome pair as Trivalents form, segregation leads to producing diploid gametes

The Norway rat (Rattus Norvegicus), a widespread pest, was controlled for about a decade by the anticoagulant warfarin. This chemical substance, placed in food pellets, is absorbed by the intestinal tract and inhibits the clotting of blood. After a population decline for about 10 years, rat populations increased and stabilized. In one European population, as illustrated in the graph below, the percentage of rats resistant to warfarin has remained fairly stable over a number of years.

Resistance to warfarin is governed by a dominant autosomal gene, R. More than 15 percent of the resistant animals are heterozygous at this locus (Rr). The table below indicates the response to warfarin and relative reproductive fitness of individuals that are homozygous or heterozygous for the dominant gene (R). The RR individuals have a 20-fold increase in vitamin K requirement over individuals.

Fitness is a measure of the reproductive success of a particular genotype. The highest fitness is 1.00.
Which of the following is most likely correct concerning the gene for resistance to warfarin?
