One possible result of chromosomal breakage can be that a fragment reattaches to

the original chromosome in a reverse orientation. This is called ______________

• deletion.

• inversion

• disjunction

• translocation

Non-disjunction involving the X chromosomes occurs during oogenesis and produces two kinds of eggs, XX and O (no X chromosomes). If normal sperms fertilize the two types of eggs, which are the possible genotypes produced?

• XX AND XY

• XYY AND XO

• XXY AND XO

• YY AND XO
