If a male homozygous for the normal gene order and a female homozygous for an inversion mutation had a child the child would have what type or types of chromosomes?

The child would inherit one set of chromosomes from each parent. Since the male is homozygous for the normal gene order, he will pass on a normal chromosome set. The female, being homozygous for the inversion mutation, will pass on chromosomes that carry the inversion. As a result, the child will have one set of normal chromosomes and one set with the inversion mutation, leading to a genotype that is heterozygous for the inversion.
