The cardiovascular system is a system of organs that facilitates the circulation of blood to all parts of the body. Blood is required to reach all living cells as the  blood carries essential elements for cell life and regulation, such as nutrients, amino acids, electrolytes,oxygen and hormones. The blood also has a role in maintaining body temperature, fighting diseases, maintaining a stable pH and maintaining homeostasis. The blood also carries carbon dioxide away from the cells. The cardiovascular system consists of a network of arteries, veins and capillaries, as well as the heart, which acts to pump blood around the body, Blood leaves the heart via arteries and return via veins. The lymphatic system transports lymph, typically at a much slower rate than blood. The lymphatic system is an important part of the immune system. Unlike the cardiovascular system, the lymphatic system is not a closed system. The cardiovascular system processes a lot of blood each day through capillary filtration, which separates the blood cells from the plasma. Not all plasma is re-absorbed into the blood vessels, and the lymphatic system is responsible for returning the remaining plasma to the cardiovascular system.  <span>    </span>

Talja [164]

The correct answer is: a. n+1, n+1, n-1, n-1

Nondisjunction is the failure of homologous chromosomes or sister chromatids to separate properly during mitosis  or meiosis. There are three forms of nondisjunction:  

1. failure of a pair of homologous chromosomes to separate in meiosis I ,  

2. failure of sister chromatids to separate during meiosis II, and  

3. failure of sister chromatids to separate during mitosis.

As a consequence of nondisjunction abnormal chromosome numbers appears. If nondisjunction occurs during the meiosis I (anaphase I), this means that at least one pair of homologous chromosomes did not separate. The consequence is two cells that have an extra copy of one chromosome and two cells that lack that chromosome.
