Answer» CORRECT option is (B) Arises due to the non-disjunction of non-homologous chromosomes For explanation I would say: ANEUPLOIDY does not arise due to the non-disjunction of non-homologous chromosomes. Instead, it arises due to the non-disjunction of the homologous pair of chromosomes. It results in the formation of GAMETE with an extra chromosome and the other gamete deficient in one chromosome. |
