In nondisjunction, if members of a pair of homologous chromosomes do not move apart during meiosis I or sister chromatids fail to separate during meiosis II, this means one gamete receives 2 of the same kind of chromosome and i<span>f either one of these abnormal gametes unites with a normal one at fertilization, the zygote will also have an abnormal number of particular chromosomes; which is known as an aneuploidy.</span>

Why don't cyanobacteria and bacteria reproduce by mitosis? Because:
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

They do not contain chromosomes. (Ans.C).

Explanation:

Cyanobacteria also known as blue-green algae, they are heterogeneous group of photosynthetic prokaryotic organisms. Like prokaryotes such as bacteria, cyanobacteria lack endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, membrane bound nucleus, and Golgi apparatus. Bacteria are simpler than other organisms, and single celled microbes.

Both bacteria and cyanobacteria reproduce through the asexual method either by binary fission in unicellular, multiple fission in colonial form or by spore formation, and fragmentation in filamentous species.
