The process of separation of homologous chromosomes is during meiosis is referred to as disjunction. gametogenesis is production of gametes and it occurs in sex cells. disjunction occur during anaphase of meoisis I and in humans it results in separation of homologous chromosomes into two sets each containing 23 chromosomes. these chromosomes will eventually move to the opposite poles of the cell.
The cell would dissolve in water
Answer:
The answer is statement 1, 2, and 3
Explanation:
A hypothesis is a starting point for further investigation, therefore a hypothesis will always be a possibility at least until it is tested.
Variable is a factor that is liable to vary or change.
A hypothesis without being tested is merely a statement or an explanation made on the basis of limited evidence. Therefore it is unsure whether the said statement is true or not.
A hypothesis can still be proven by further investigation with different variables
The correct answer is:
The principal cause of aneuploidy is chromosome nondisjunction during mitosis or meiosis. Polyploidy in nature can result either from the duplication of euploid chromosome sets from a single species or from the combining of chromosome sets from different species.
Aneuploidy is a phenomenon when there is the presence of an abnormal number of chromosomes in a cell (an extra or missing chromosome). Usually it appears as a result of improper cell division (chromosomes don’t separate) and it can cause many genetic disorders.
Polyploidy refers to a state when there are more than two sets of chromosomes (one from mother one from father). Triploid (three sets of chromosomes) and tetraploid (four sets of chromosomes) chromosomes are examples of polyploidy. This phenomenon is most common in plants.
