Answer: option B - some gametes may have an extra copy of some genes.

Explanation:

Actually, nondisjunction occurs in meiosis and results in FOUR ABNORMAL GAMETES/DAUGHTER CELLS: two gametes have an EXTRA copy of gene e.g XXY, while two other gametes LACK a required copy e.g XO

So, the right answer is some gametes may have an extra copy of some genes.

Briefly explain how DNA profiling is used to identify individuals.
Ne4ueva [31]
A sample of DNA is taken from blood of saliva. PCR makes lots of copies, or amplifies the DNA. We then add restriction enzymes to cut the DNA at palindrome sequences. We then run the DNA through gel Elecrophoresis. Each person has unique short tandem repeats that cause a unique number of cuts by the restriction enzyme. These cuts are separated by size on gel electrophoresis, so no two people have the exact same pattern. We can compare individuals banding patterns to what is found at a crime scene, taken in previous samples, in a baby, and the sample that matches all the banding patterns will be the individual.
