The correct answer is: a. n+1, n+1, n-1, n-1
Nondisjunction is the failure of homologous chromosomes or sister chromatids to separate properly during mitosis or meiosis. There are three forms of nondisjunction:
1. failure of a pair of homologous chromosomes to separate in meiosis I ,
2. failure of sister chromatids to separate during meiosis II, and
3. failure of sister chromatids to separate during mitosis.
As a consequence of nondisjunction abnormal chromosome numbers appears. If nondisjunction occurs during the meiosis I (anaphase I), this means that at least one pair of homologous chromosomes did not separate. The consequence is two cells that have an extra copy of one chromosome and two cells that lack that chromosome.

Explanation:
The flower color trait in snapdragons shows incomplete dominance: the heterozygous genotype produces an intermediate phenotype between the two different homozygous genoytpes.
<u>The possible genotypes and phenotypes are:</u>
- R1R1 : red
- R1R2: pink
- R2R2: white
<h3>a. R1R1 X R1R2
</h3>
The R1R1 individual only produces R1 gametes. The R1R2 parent produces 1/2 R1 gametes and 1/2 R2 gametes.
<u>For that reason, the F1 will be:</u>
- 1/2 R1R1 (red)
- 1/2 R1R2 (pink)
<h3>b. R1R1 X R2R2
</h3>
The R1R1 individual only produces R1 gametes. The R2R2 parent only produces R2 gametes.
<u>For that reason, the F1 will be</u> :
<h3>c. R1R2 X R1R2
</h3>
Both parents are heterozygous. This is a monohybrid cross, and from Mendel's Laws <u>we expect the following offspring:</u>
- 1/4 R1R1 (red)
- 2/4 R1R2 (pink)
- 1/4 R2R2 (white)
<h3 /><h3>d. R1R2 X R2R2</h3>
The R1R2 parent produces 1/2 R1 gametes and 1/2 R2 gametes. The R2R2 individual only produces R2 gametes.
<u>For that reason, the F1 will be:</u>
- 1/2 R2R2 (white)
- 1/2 R1R2 (pink)
