Answer:

The correct answer is non-disjunction at the time of meiosis.

Explanation:

A disorder, which takes place in males exhibiting an additional X-chromosome and is an outcome of an error in cell differentiation resulting in anomaly known as the Klinefelter's syndrome. Due to non-disjunction the egg or the sperm may acquire an additional X-chromosome. When these unusual cells take part in the genetic makeup of a person, then that individual most probably suffers from the condition termed as Klinefelter's syndrome.  

In the majority of the circumstances, the division of the cells takes place generally during the development of the sperm, and at the same time, there may be certain errors at the time of egg development. Generally, the condition is mostly seen in the offspring of women that conceive after the age of 35.

Secondary succession could occur after a _______.
pychu [463]

Answer:

disturbance has destroyed population in a community

Explanation:

The secondary succession occurs after there has been some disturbance that has manged to badly damage or destroy the populations in a community. This basically means that after some catastrophic event that happened to a certain population or populations, other species moved in to colonize the freed space. There are countless examples of secondary succession in nature, and one of the best is when there is a strong volcanic eruption. The volcano manages to destroy the population of plants and animals in its close surroundings, but after the eruption ends, the space starts to be colonized by new plants and animals step by step until they create a new well functioning community.
