Parents that are homozygous for different mutations a, b and c are crossed, producing offspring that are heterozygous as following

aa X bb        =  ab  (X)          

 bb X cc         =  bc  (Y)

aa X cc          =   ac  (Z)

If a and b belong to same locus but b and c belong to different locus then phenotype of heterozygote

Aneuploids may arise through nondisjunction, the failure of homologous chromosomes or sister chromatids to separate in meiosis. Following some statement are correct.

A)  Meiosis I non-disjunction leads to produce all gamete become aneuploidy

B) Meiosis II non-disjunction leads to produce half of gametes n+1 other half normal haploid

C) Meiosis I non-disjunction leads to produce half of gametes n+1 other half n-1

D) Either meiosis I or meiosis II non-disjunction leads to produce all aneuploidy gamete
