Inheritance patterns cannot always be explained by Mendel's models of inheritance. If a pair of homologous chromosomes fails to

separate during meiosis I, select the choice that shows the chromosome number of the four resulting gametes with respect to the normal haploid number (n)?

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

A) n+1; n+1; n-1; n-1

B) n+1; n-1; n; n

C) n+1; n-1; n-1; n-1

D) n+1; n+1; n; n

Answer:

Option-1

Explanation:

The laws of inheritance were concluded from the result of Mendel's experiment which is based on the fact that gametes are formed. Later research suggested that gametes are formed by the process of meiosis which takes place in two phases and recombination is a characteristic of Meiosis.

If during anaphase I of meiosis I, the alleles fails to separate that is nondisjunction takes place at anaphase I, Then the resulting daughter cells will have unequal distribution of chromosomes.

One daughter cell will receive 1 extra copy of the chromosome while another daughter cell will receive 1 less chromosome therefore ploidy level will be n+1 and n-1.

During meiosis II, 2 more daughter cells will be formed with the same ploidy level therefore in last the meiosis will result in 2 (n+1) and 2 (n-1) cell.

Thus, Option-1 is the correct answer.

ELEN [110]

The right answer is D.


Gene therapy is a method of introducing nucleic acids (DNA or RNA) into the cells of an organism to correct an abnormality, such as a mutation, causing a pathology. It is often a question of bringing a normal and functional gene (transgene) into a cell where the present gene is altered.

Another method can bring RNA capable of partially regulating or blocking the expression of an altered gene.

What aspect of chromosome behavior most clearly accounts for Mendel's law of segregation?
svetlana [45]

The given question is incomplete as the group of choices lack the correct answer, however, the correct group of choices are as follows:

A. Movement of sister chromatids to opposite poles at anaphase II of meiosis.

B. Movement of homologous chromosomes to opposite poles at anaphase I of meiosis.

C. Crossing over between homologous chromosomes during prophase I of meiosis.

D.  Replication of chromosomes prior to meiosis.

E. Independent alignment of different homologous pairs on the metaphase I spindle.

Answer:

The correct answer is :  Movement of homologous chromosomes to opposite poles at anaphase I of meiosis.

Explanation:

The Mendel's law of segregation says that during formation of gametes the copies of genes segregate from each other so each gamete has equal and only one allele of the gene.

This behavior of homologous chromosome can be seen in anaphase I in meiosis, responsible for the segregation of copies of allele into different copies.

Thus, the correct answer is :  Movement of homologous chromosomes to opposite poles at anaphase I of meiosis.
