How does the potato behave that is different from tomato with regard to meiosis and the subsequent fusion of gametes? Sporophytes must behave as diploids or else all of our assumptions about reproduction, mating, genetics must be changed to account for more than two copies of chromosomes. It ...
How many genetically different kinds of gametes can an individual with each of the following phenotypes produce? What formula exists for determining the number of different gametes an organism of a given phenotype can produce? What is the probability that the offspring of a homozy...
In a diploid organism with 2n = 6 chromosomes, what is the possible number of chromosomes in the gametes when a single non-disjunction event occurs in meiosis 1? A. 2 or 4 B. 2, 3, or 4 C. 2 D. 0 E. 4 In a ...
, it has as a consequence during meiosis: there is a high frequency of non-disjunction of sister chromatids, which is due to the fact that sister chromatids associate in multivalents, rather than in bivalents during meiotic prophase I, resulting in the formation of aneuploid gametes [66]. ...
