Nondisjunction during meiosis results in an abnormal number of chromosomes in one or more gametes. In some cases of nondisjuncti

on, a single chromosome fails to separate. In others, none of the chromosomes separate. Suppose an egg is produced in which none of the chromosomes separate during meiosis II. What is the chromosome number of the zygote that results if this egg is fertilized by a normal sperm?

Answer:

haploid (n) or triploid (3n)

Explanation:

If none of the chromosomes separate during meiosis, the resulting gametes will either lack chromosome or have diploid number (2n) of chromosome instead of a haploid number.

If an egg without chromosome (o) fertilizes a normal sperm (n), the resulting zygote will have haploid number (n) of chromosome.

If an egg with diploid number of chromosome (2n) fertilizes a normal sperm (n), the resulting zygote will be a triploid with 3n number of chromosome.

What types of organisms reproduce by binary fission?
DaniilM [7]
Binary fission is a form of asexual reproduction used by members of domains archaea and bacteria among other organisms. Like mitosis (in eukaryotic cells), it results in cell division of the original cell to produce two viable cells that can repeat the process. Hope I’ve helped ;)

vivado [14]
The answer is behavioral isolation.

Reproductional isolation is a way to prevent closely related species to mate each other. This is due to reproductive barriers which can be either prezygotic (before fertilization) and postzygotic (after fertilization) barrier. Behavioral isolation is an example of postzygotic barrier. It is based on behavior, including mating sounds and rituals. Thanks to behavior isolation, the different species (in this example gentoo penguins and emperor penguins) will have different mating rituals so they could attract only individuals of their own species, respectively.
