Answer:

The correct answer is option E) "Nondisjunction at either meiosis I or meiosis II in the mother".

Explanation:

Nondisjunction is a phenomena at which chromosomes are not properly separated during anaphase. This can either happen at meiosis I or meiosis II during oogenesis. Nondisjunction would explain the XO chromosomic condition of the daughter with Turner syndrome as well as the X-linked recessive allele of the red green color blindness. Nondisjunction happened in the mother because the father could not inherited an X-linked condition.

1. Which of the following correctly compares the changes that take place in an ecosystem during primary succession and secondary
mr Goodwill [35]
The correct answers are as follows:
1. A.
There are basically two types of succession, they are primary and secondary succession. Primary succession refers to the type of succession that occurs in new and bare areas where the soil present is unable  to sustain the growth of plants. An example of primary succession area is an area with sand dunes that is freshly formed. Primary succession usually occur over a long period of time. Secondary succession is a type of succession that occur on a land which was disturbed by  hazardous events such as fire outbreak, flood, etc. Secondary succession occurs much faster than the primary succession.

2. D
There are two types of factors that affect any particular ecosystem, these are abiotic and biotic factors. The abiotic factors refers to non living factors such as temperature, relative humidity, rainfall, etc. while the biotic factors refer to the living factors. Looking at the options given above, one will see that only option D has living factor, which is predators. All other options have abiotic factors.
