Explain how nondisjunction can lead to aneuploidies.

Biology
1 answer:
iris [78.8K]4 years ago
8 0

In nondisjunction, if members of a pair of homologous chromosomes do not move apart during meiosis I or sister chromatids fail to separate during meiosis II, this means one gamete receives 2 of the same kind of chromosome and if either one of these abnormal gametes unites with a normal one at fertilization, the zygote will also have an abnormal number of particular chromosomes; which is known as an aneuploidy.

kow [346]
Options are not provided in the question. I found the answer on the internet.

Answer: CPT code reported is 26010-F5
26010-F5 is a CPT code that refers to drainage of finger abscess.
F5 means right hand thumb. Since in the above question the patient presents abscess of the right hand thumb, it will be F5 and the fluid is drained so it will be 26010. So, the CPT code will be 26010-F5.

Assuming the population begins in H−W equilibrium, what is C1 allele frequency after one generation of natural selection? Expres
DIA [1.3K]

Complete question:

In a population of flowers growing in a meadow, C1 and C2 are autosomal codominant alleles that control flower color. The alleles are polymorphic in the population, with f (C1) = 0.7 and f (C2) = 0.3. Flowers that are C1C1 are yellow, orange flowers are C1C2, and C2C2 flowers are red. A storm blows a new species of hungry insects into the meadow, and they begin to eat yellow and orange flowers but not red flowers. The predation exerts strong natural selection on the flower population, resulting in relative fitness values of C1C1 = 0.30, C1C2 = 0.60, and C2C2 = 1.0. Assuming the population begins in H−W equilibrium, what is C1 allele frequency after one generation of natural selection? Express your answer using three decimal places.

Answer:      

The C1 allele frequency after one generation of natural selection equals 0.559
