Answer:

The correct answer is option A which is an abnormal male with nondisjunction.

Step-by-step explanation:

The karytope is the complete picture of chromosomes present in a cell of an individual.

It is used to study the chromosome number and abnormalities related with chromosome numbers.

Chromosomal nondisjunction is the consequence when the homologous chromosomes are not completely separated from each other during meiosis.

While chromosomal translocation is the crossing over of genetic material between two chromosomes.

Only chromosomal disjunction can be seen from the karyotype.
