Answer:

The chromosomes will not be separated and the cell cycle will be blocked

Explanation:

Chromosome separation is one of the key steps during the formation of daughter cells during M-phase.

The chromosome segregation is proceeded by the attachment of the mitotic spindle (cytoskeletal structures) to the kinetochores of the chromosomes during metaphase.

If the chromosomes are not attached to the mitotic spindles or the kinetochore not properly attached to the spindle than a cell cycle checkpoint called spindle assembly checkpoint will not allow the cell to enter anaphase and the cell cycle will not proceed.

Thus, the chromosomes will not be separated and the cell cycle will be blocked is correct.

Why does incomplete dominance not support the blending theory of inheritance?
Nookie1986 [14]
Incomplete dominance can happen in flowers such as snap dragons where a red flower plant and a white flower plant have an offspring that is neither red nor white but is a mix so in this case it would be pink. It does not support the blending theory as it does not get its colour from the dominant plant in this case but from both.
