A

Turner 's syndrome and klinefetlter's syndrome

B

Down's syndrome and Klinefetlter 's syndrome

Due to nondisjunction of chromosomes during spermatogenesis , sperms carry both sex chromosomes ( 22A +XY ) and some sperms do not carry any sex chromosomes ( 22A+ X ) , what types of genetic disorder appear among the offsprings ?

Assertion :-In o graasshopper, some of the sperms bear X-chromosome whereas some do not. Reason :- Grasshopper is an example of XX-XY type of sex determination.

The initial clue about the genetic/chromosomal mechanism of sex determination can be traced back to some of the experiments carried out in

State True or False (w.r.t. following diagrams) (i) During gamete formation, only 50 % of the sperm bear X-chromosome. (ii) Both male and female individuals have same type of sex chromosomes.

Fill the gaps of the following paragraph taking appropriate words from the bracket (first, second, meiosis, mitosis, 1:1, 1:2, gametes, male, female, 50%, 100%). In human beings male has XY and female has XX chromosome complement. The sex chromosomes segregate during the (a) division of (b)_____ The X-chromosome constitutes (c) _____ of produced sperms and (d)____ of eggs. If randomly mated, the ratio of sex expression is (e) _____. The sex of the offspring is determined by (f)____ of (g) _____.
