Answer:

occurred an aneuploidy (monosomy)

Explanation:

Aneuploidy can be defined as a chromosomal aberration in which the chromosome number is abnormal. In an aneuploidy, the number of total chromosomes in daughter cells is not an exact multiple of a haploid set, by either gaining or losing chromosomes during mitosis. Aneuploidies are common in cancer cells and in different types of chromosome disorders. Moreover, monosomy is a type of aneuploidy in which daughter cells have a single chromosome copy instead of the two copies found in diploid cells. For example, Turner syndrome is a monosomy caused by the loss of the X chromosome.
