sjunction event have occurred? a. Meiosis i of mother
b. Meiosis i of father
c. Meiosis ii of father

e. Meiosis i or ii of mother f. Meiosis i or ii of father
-The non-disjunction occurs in the meiosis II of the mother. This non-disjunction occurs when the two sister chromatids X and X fails to separate during meiosis II and produces an egg having two X chromosomes.
-Klinefelter syndrome is a condition that occurs in males when they have an extra X chromosome. The syndrome is not inherited, but usually occurs as a random event during the formation of reproductive cells (eggs and sperm) that results in the presence of one extra copy of the X chromosome in each cell (47,XXY).
Producing and exporting organs in the plant (typically mature leaves) are known as sources, while non-photosynthetic organs (fruits, roots and tubers) and immature leaves are known as sinks.
