Chromosomes fails to split during mitosis. That is non-dis junction. Due to that, different proteins are produced. (because the DNA is messed up and so is the amino acid chain. That is why different protein is produced that needed.) That causes serious problems. Not all mutations are harmful.

Triple X syndrome occurs because of whAT?
Nondisjunction
What happens when a male has xxy sex chromosomes?
Nondisjunction will occur . Yep
Why does nondisjunction happen?
Nondisjunction occurs during the Anaphase stage of Meiosis. In this stage, the sister chromosomes move to opposite sides of the cell. However, in Nondisjunction one or more set(S) of chromosomes move to the same side of the cell.
What process does non disjunction occur in?
Nondisjunction occurs during anaphase, usually when referring to meiosis, when a tetrad fails to separate.
The faillure of chromosomes to separate during meiosis is called?
Its called disconjunction. Sometimes it is so bad that they have a miscarriage or the following happens:Trisomy (extra chromosomeso have 47 chromosomes instead of 46)Down's syndrome (andextra number 21 chromosome)Klinefelter's syndrome (males with an extra X chromosome...XXY)
What happens if nondisjunction occurs during meiosos?
If nondisjunction occurs during meiosis the result could be a wide range of mutations. Most likely it would result in mosaicism meaning there will be a mixture of affected cells and non affected cells.
What occurs during nondijunction?
What occurs during nondisjunction
What Triple x syndrome occurs because?
Nondisjunction
Triple X syndrome occurs because of whAT?
Nondisjunction
What occurs during nondisjunction?
If nondisjunction occurs, abnormal numbers of chromosomes may find their way into gametes, and a disorder of chromosome numbers may result.
What effects does nondisjunction have on the body if it occurs during mitosis What problems can an individual have if they have nondisjunction in somatic cells?
Autosomal nondisjunction is the most prolific cause of trisomy 21, or down syndrome, a defect that usually occurs during meiosis 1, but can occur during 2 as well.
Occurs when homologous chromosomes do not separate in meiosis?
Nondisjunction occurs when homologous chromosomes do not seperate. -Amber ^-^
Nondisjunction occurs when?
homologous chromosomes fail to separate during meiosis
What happens if a centromere does not break?
Nondisjunction forms and causes Aneoploidy
What happens during meiosis that ultimately results in a defect characterized by the deletion of chromosomes?
Nondisjunction occurs in too many cells or too few cells causing defects
What happens when a male has xxy sex chromosomes?
Nondisjunction will occur . Yep
What happens when an extra chromosome is present?
Down sydrome because of nondisjunction in the chromosomes
