Which of the segregation of translocated chromosome will result in non- lethal gamete?(a) Homologous chromosomes moving to same pole(b) Alternate segregation(c) Adjacent with the homologous chromosomes moving to same pole(d) Adjacent with homologous chromosomes moving to different poleThe question was posed to me by my college director while I was bunking the class.My question is taken from Chromosomal Abnormalities : Translocation in section Chromosomal Basis of Inheritance of Cytogenetics

Answer»

The correct OPTION is (b) Alternate SEGREGATION

For explanation I would say: In CASE of alternate segregation all the genes pass to both the gametes ALTHOUGH in different chromosomes, this does not lead to lethality. But in other cases, the genetic balance is DISTURBED.
