Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C.

Explanation:

The stem cells are the unspecialized cells which can form any specialized organs of the body as they are the pluripotent cells.

The stem cells in the embryos have the ability to form all the organs of the body but their function gets changed in adults. In human adults, the stem cells are mostly present in the bone marrow which form new cell only for the replacement of few cells but not for the formation of new organs.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.

The right answer is A) Trisomy

Aberrant karyotypes containing an abnormal number of chromosomes are known in the human species. The best-known (and most common) chromosomal abnormality is trisomy 21, which is responsible for Down syndrome (mongolism). There are others such as Turner syndrome (woman with a single X chromosome) or Klinefelter syndrome (man XXY).


These abnormalities originate from the non-disjunction of the chromosomes of a pair of homologues during metaphase I of meiosis. At the end of division I, a daughter cell contains the two chromosomes of the pair considered and the other cell does not contain a chromosome of this pair. A similar result can be obtained during a bad distribution of chromatids during anaphase II.


After fertilization from a gamete of this type, a trisomy or a monosomy is obtained.
