Answer:
The final product is four gametes, two of them with 5 chromosomes, and the other two with 3 chromosomes each.
Explanation:
If nondisjunction occurs during meiosis 1, a pair of homologous chromosomes fail to separate, and one of the daughter cells will have the two chromosomes while the other cell will not get any chromosome from the pair.
If meiosis 1 occurs normally, but nondisjunction occurs in meiosis 2, sister chromatids fail to separate.
The usual process of meiosis produces four daughter haploid cells (n) from a diploid germ cell (2n). Each daughter cell is haploid because they have half the number of chromosomes of the original one.
If the diploid number of the original cell is 8 (2n=8), then under normal conditions, each haploid daughter cell should have 4 chromosomes (n = 4).
But in the exposed example, one pair of homologous chromosomes experiences nondisjunction during meiosis I (in the attached file, you will recognize this pair as the red one). The other chromosomes separate as usual. So one of the daughter cells will have one extra chromosome than expected (five instead of four), and the other daughter cell will lack one chromosome (three instead of four). Meiosis II occurs normally. The final result is the formation of four gametes, two of them with 5 chromosomes, and the other two with 3 chromosomes each.

Explanation:
Natural selection is the process where organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring.
Answer:
The correct answer is - Genotype of the offspring
Explanation:
Punnet square is a diagram which is used to predict and show the genotype of offspring that is produced by a cross between male and female gametes. This approach was given by Reginald C. Punnett.
Each grid have a genotype that can determine the phenotype of offspring. The letters used in to fill these grids can be made up of uppercase letters, lower case letters or both. The allele shown in upper case letters shows that the allele is dominant and the allele which is in lowercase letter is a recessive allele.
Therefore the letters inside the grid of a punnet square represents the genotype of the offsprings.
Hello!
Your answer is A. The daughter cells are genetically identical to both each other and to the parent cell.
The parent cell makes two copies of its chromosomes and separates them, then divides by cytokinesis, creating two genetically identical daughter cells.
Answer:
See Below.
Explanation:
The main function of the plants leaves is to create it's own food source via photosynthesis which produces glucose as one of it's products. Transpiration also occurs in the plant leaves where water evaporates out of the leaf increasing the concentration gradient, allowing more water to move up via the xylem via a column of water.
