Which of the following will be the number of chromosomes in the sperm of a Sahiwal bull? Correct Answer 30

The number of chromosomes in the sperm of a Sahiwal bull is 30.
The Sahiwal originated in the dry Punjab region which lies along central Punjab. Sahiwal bulls have demonstrated the ability to sire small, fast-growing calves, noted for their hardiness under unfavourable climatic conditions.
A bull's sperm has 30 chromosomes, including one which is either an X- or a Y-chromosome whose genes code for sex.

There are two rows, each containing 3 numbers. Below are some rules to be used to get the resultant number for each row separately. Use the rule from left to right for each row and find the answer to the question. Rule: 1. If an even number is followed by an even number, then the first number will be subtracted from the second. 2. If an odd number is followed by an odd number, then both will be added. 3. If an odd number is followed by an even number, then the even number will be subtracted from the square of the odd number. 4. If an even number is followed by an odd number, then the odd number will be subtracted from the even number. Row I: 9,11, 34 Row II: 16, 9, 8 What is the difference between the resultant numbers in the first row and the second row
