G pairs with C
A pairs with T

45 cytosines, 45 guanines
55 adenines, 55 thymines 
Cytosine pairs with Guanine, and Adenine pairs with Thymine.
This means, that if there are 45 cytosines, there must be 45 guanines.
So that's 90 base pairs down.
That means that there are 10 left between adenine and thymine- so that means there are 5 adenines.

Answer:

Genes coding for proteins involved in chiasma formation.

Explanation:

Chiasma is the connecting link between two non sister chromatids from homologous chromosomes. At chiasma chromosomal crossover takes place in which the genetic material is exchanged between the chromatids. During meiosis aneuploidy occurs if chiasma is absent or impaired due to a mutation in genes encoding for proteins involved in chiasma formation.

Aneuploidy is characterised by presence of abnormal number of chromosomes in cells. They can be 45 or 47 in number apart from the usual 46. Due to impaired chiasma, chromosome pair fails to separate and is passed on to the egg or sperm as it is hence there is one gamete with an extra chromosome and one gamete with a less chromosome. Aneuploidy can result in many genetic disorders like three copies of chromosome 21 can result in Down syndrome.
