Answer:

The answer is mitotic nondisjunction of X Chromosomes.

Explanation:

Nondisjunction is a type of error that occurs resulting in daughter cells with chromosome numbers that are abnormal (aneuploidy). Due to the error in chromosome numbers, it gives rise to conditions such as Down Syndrome (Trisomy 21) and Turner Syndrome (Monosomy X). Nondisjunction can be caused by;

1. Failure of separation to occur in a pair of homologous chromosome during meiosis I.

2. Failure of separation between sister chromatids in Meiosis II.

3. Failure of separation between sisters chromatids in mitosis.

This gives the 45,X in Turner syndrome. The other X chromosome is partly or completely missing. Hence, the female is born with only one X chromosome.

What are some possible benefits to a nomadic lifestyle, and what are some possible benefits to a town lifestyle?
Nastasia [14]
Town lifestyle (I assume you mean by this: a settled lifestyle , so that it contrasts with the nomadic lifestyle) comes with more security: you can store your food reserves and plan for the future.

nomadic lifestyle gives you more flexibility but less security: you can travel elsewhere if your fodosource is runnign low... but usually this is not as good of a food source as a settled lifestyle. One other possible advantage could be being merchants: nomads can benefit from a trade.
