Nondisjunction is defined as the failure of the chromosomes to seperate during cell division. An animal with a haploid number of 6 (diploid number of 12) undergoes meiosis, and at the meiosis II (cells are already haploid from the meiosis I), nondisjunction occurs. The mature ovum will contain 6+1 chromosomes (n+1) because there is an extra chromosome from the nondisjunction. The second polar body will contain 5 chromosomes (normal would be 6) because the second polar body did not receive that extra chromosome due to nondisjunction. In the event of fertilization of the abnormal ovum with a normal sperm, the zygote will be a diploid (12 chromosomes) normally but since the ovum as an extra chromosome from the nondisjunction then the zygote will have an extra chromosome (13 chromosomes). One pair of chromosomes has an extra single chromosome and this is called a trisomy.

Nicotine is the addictive component in tobacco smoke
Luba_88 [7]

Explanation:

Yes, Nicotine is very addictive, so like, if you take a ciggerate and start to smoke, the smoke enters your lungs, and nicotine is instantly absorbed into the blood and delivered into the brain, it takes effect sometimes as quickly as 10 seconds. Nicotine can change how the brain works or thinks, and can make the brain to crave more of it. Nicotine when it enters your brain realeses a thing called, dopimine which gives the person a good feeling. Dopamine is something in the nervous system to send messages to the brain cells, your body makes it, high levels of dopamine change our daily behaviors. So if nicotine releases or rises the dopamine, it can get you sick and addicted really easily in just 2 or 3 days of smoking, i will not consider smoking any tobaco.
