In humans, females inherit an X chromosome from each parent; males inherit their X chromosome from their mother and their Y chro

mosome from their father. The same is true of all other placental mammals: males produce X and Y gametes, and females produce only X gametes. In this system, referred to as the XX-XY system, maleness is determined by sperm cells that carry the Y chromosome. Yet the XX-XY sex determination system does not occur in all animal species. It is only one of a variety of systems within the animal kingdom. Above are Punnett squares illustrating three examples of gender inheritance patterns: humans, insects and birds. Consider both the illustration and the text. Compare the inheritance system of bird with that of humans.

In bird, females are heterogametic, produce two type of gametes. The two different sex chromosomes of a female bird has been designated to be the Z and W chromosomes. Whereas males have a pair of Z- sex chromosomes. Males are homogametic produce only one type of gametes with Z-sex chromosomes. Thus sex determination is ZW-ZZ type. In humans sex determination is XX-XY type. Males are heterogametic produce X and Y gametes and females are homogametic produce one type of gametes. Therefore, in bird sex are determined by female gametes.

An animal has a diploid chromosome number of 60. Suppose that the first meiotic division of a germ cell is normal, but a single
ella [17]

Answer:

Two gametes end up with 30 chromosomes, one gamete will have 31 and one will have 29.

Explanation:

During meiosis, a single diploid cell divides into four haploid cells with half the chromosome number than the parent cell.

During meiosis I, homologous chromosomes separate and the chromosome number in the two daughter cells goes down by half. During meiosis II, the "sister" chromatids separate, and the chromosome number in the respective daughter cells remains the same.

Non-disjunction of a single dyad in meiosis II causes that one of the daughter cells will have an extra chromosome, and another will be lacking one. The two other gametes will be normal.

I drew a simple example of what would happen during meiosis of a 2n=4 cell if there was non-disjunction in a single dyad during meiosis II.
