A. Non-Mendelian inheritance is defined by the failure of the offspring of a mating to display Mendelian segregation for parental characters. 

B. For Non-Mendelian inheritance, presence of genes that are outside the nucleus and are not distributed to gametes or to daughter cells by segregation on the meiotic or mitotic spindles.
