Which of the following scenarios occurring simultaneously co
Which of the following scenarios occurring simultaneously could produce an XXXY male?
| Male nondisjunction meiosis I, female non disjunction meiosis I or II |
Solution
The first option is correct;
Male AA+ XY = when nondisjunction= one has A+XY (this will survive), other has A+0(this will die) [meiosis I]
Then A+XY will make with disjunction= A+XY and A+XY
Other hand female AA+XX if nondisjunction in meosis I then A+XX
Then in meosis II the A+XX will form naturally two gametes A+XX and A+XX
If it occur in meiosis II then
Female AA+XX = A+X, A+X [normal in meosis I]
Then A+X may develop A+XX in one gamete and other get A+0. [nondisjunction in meosis II]
