Question

During egg cell production, a mutation causes a spindle fiber to fail to separate a chromosome. this type of mutation is called nondisjunction. which result would most likely occur due to this mutation?

Answer 1

If the spindle fibers failed to form during mitosis, then the chromosomes would also fail to segregate naturally. The spindle fibers are involved in the movement and positioning of chromosomes during cell division.
