Answer:
E) Either anaphase I or II
Explanation:
Failure of segregation of homologous chromosomes during anaphase I or failure of segregation of sister chromatids during anaphase II leads to the presence of the abnormal number of chromosomes in resultant gametes. In the given example, the egg mother cell with 48 chromosomes (24 pairs) would enter meiosis I but the failure of one pair of homologous chromosomes to segregate from each other followed by normal meiosis II would result in the formation of two gametes with one extra chromosome and two gametes with one less chromosome.
On the other hand, if the nondisjunction occurs at anaphase II of meiosis II, two normal gametes, one gamete with one extra chromosome and one gamete with one less chromosome will be formed. Therefore, nondisjunction at anaphase I or anaphase II would have resulted in the production of eggs with one extra chromosome.
False a watershed is an area of land that contains a common set of streams and rivers that all drain into a single larger body of water
Answer:
1. The gametophyte generation is haploid.
2. The embryo is diploid.
3. The megaspore is haploid.
4. The sporophyte generation is diploid.
Explanation:
1. Gametophyte- The gametophytic generation is the structure which produces gametes in the plant. Since the gametes are haploid, therefore, the gametophyte us considered the haploid.
2. Embryo- The embryo is formed after the fusion of fertilization when zygote develops, therefore, is considered diploid.
3. Megaspore- the big size spore which is formed from by the meiotic division of the megasporocyte, therefore, is considered haploid.
4. Sporophyte- the sporophyte generation develops from the embryo which is diploid therefore is considered diploid.
