The newly-discovered organism Yawle nhoj, has a diploid chromosome number of 56. Suppose that one of the chromosome pairs fails

to disjoin properly during Meiosis I. How many chromosomes will be present in each of the four gametes that result from that meiosis? Assume meiosis II is normal.

Answer:

The correct answer will be 2 gametes with 29 chromosomes and 2 gametes with 27 chromosomes will be formed.

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division which produces four daughter cells. Chromosomes separate or the disjunction of chromosomes takes place during anaphase I and anaphase II of meiosis I and II respectively.

If a chromosome fails to disjoin at meiosis I this will result in the production of four gametes with an unequal number of chromosomes. Out of four gametes, 2 gametes produced will be trisomic gametes that are with one additional copy of chromosome and 2 gametes will be monosomic with one less number of chromosome.  It means the trisomic gametes will have 29 chromosomes while 2 monosomic gametes will have 27 chromosomes.

Thus, 2 gametes with 29 chromosomes and 2 gametes with 27 chromosomes will be formed is the correct answer.

PLEASE SOMEONE AWNSER THIS FOR REALLLL PLEASEEEEE
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

It is pertinent to understand what hypertonic, hypotonic, and isotonic solution means before setting out to explain how a cell reaches equilibrium in each type of solution.

A hypertonic solution is one whose solute concentration is higher than that of the sap of a cell that is immersed in it.

A hypotonic solution is one with the same solute concentration as that of the sap of the cell immersed in it.

An isotonic solution has a lower solute concentration than that of the sap of the cell immersed in it.

In biological systems, water molecules move by osmosis from the region of higher water potential or lower concentration of solutes to the region of lower water potential or higher concentration of solute. An equilibrium is reached when there is no net movement of water between two sides. Hence;

A cell placed in a hypertonic solution will lose water to the surrounding solution until an equilibrium is reached. This means that such a cell will end up shrinking (wilting) or even dying due to loss of water from the cell sap.

A cell placed in a hypotonic solution will gain water from the surrounding solution until there is no net movement of water anymore. Such a cell might become turgid or even burst out its cell content.

A cell placed in an isotonic solution will neither gain nor lose water because the cell sap and the surrounding solution have equal solute concentrations.
