Biology

Blizzard [7]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer would be meiosis.

Nondisjunction refers to the failure of separation of one or more homologous chromosome pairs or that of sister chromatids during nuclear division.

It can occur in both meiosis as well as mitosis, however, meiosis (formation of gametes) is involved in inheritance, so, the correct answer would be meiosis.

During anaphase I, nondisjunction occurs when homologous chromosome pair(s) fails to separate. In anaphase II, it occurs due to the failure of separation of sister chromatids.  

It results in the formation of gametes with abnormal chromosome number.

The answer is the first one, meiosis. This nondisjunction could occur whether in meiosis I or meiosis II. For example, an autosomal nondisconjunction at meiosis I can determine if the baby will be born with down syndrome.

When would lactic-acid fermentation take place in the human body?
AlladinOne [14]
Lactic fermentation occurs in many organisms, but only during a specific process known as anaerobic respiration. Muscles usually receive energy through a process known as cellular respiration[15], but when there is a lack of oxygen in the organism, muscles go through anaerobic respiration.
