Aneuploidy can result in the final daughter cell if the spindle fibers fail to pull a chromosome toward the pole as in case of non-disjunction.
Explanation:
Aneuploidy is a condition which arises when one or more chromosome is missing in the final daughter cells.
Non-disjunction refers to the failure of chromosomal or chromatid segregation or separation during cell division. This results in erroneous meiosis or mitosis leading to the formation of final daughter cells or gametes with an extra or missing chromosome. This condition is aneuploidy.
Failure of separation or segregation of:
- Homologous chromosomes occur in Anaphase I, affects four daughter cells.
- Sister chromatids during Anaphase II, affects two daughter cells
This failure of separation leads to aneuploidy chromosomal abnormalities like monosomy, trisomy, etc which can cause diseases like Down’s syndrome, Turner’s syndrome etc.

Mutations are simply a change in genes. So mutations usually result in variation of an organism that can be good or bad. Some mutations can result in physical and mental disorders like Stockholm disease or down syndrome, Where else some mutations can cause immune to diseases that are harmful.
