Do HOX genes play a role in the development of C. elegans?

#Unit 5. Developmental Biology
  1. No, C. elegans does not have HOX genes
  2. No, C. elegans has HOX genes but none of them are used during development
  3. Yes, C. elegans has 4 clusters of HOX genes, just like mammals, that are required for specification of the identity of structures during embryogenesis
  4. Yes, but only one HOX gene is required in the embryo; the others provide positional identity in the larva

What is probability of couple where male is karyotypically normal and the female in pericentric inversion in heterozygous condition produced child with disability if 50% chance of crossing over takes placed within pericentric inversion. (Note: Duplication and deletion in gamete will results  in disability)

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
