If cell x enters meiosis, and nondisjunction of one chromosome occurs in one of its daughter cells during meiosis ii, what will be the result at the completion of meiosis? a. ¼ of the gametes descended from cell x will be n+1, ¼ will be n-1, and ½ will be n. b. half of the gametes descended from cell x will be n+1, and half will be n-1.c. all the gametes descended from cell x will be diploid. d. two of the four gametes descended from cell x will be haploid, and two will be diploid.

The right answer is A.

The non-meiotic disjunction is an absence of separation of two members of a pair of homologous chromosomes or chromatids of a chromosome during meiosis or mitosis, it follows that one of the daughter cells presents two copies of the same chromosome or chromatids (n + 1) and the other daughter cell receives none (n-1).
