Biology · Chromosomal Aberrations
An individual is homozygous for a specific paracentric inversion (denoted by the region f-e-d). What will be the primary meiotic consequences of this inversion in its homozygous condition?
- 1Normal crossing over and chromosome segregation, yielding completely viable gametes✓
- 2Complete suppression of crossing over within the inverted region
- 3Formation of recombinants with large deletions or duplications leading to lethality
- 4Generation of an acentric and a dicentric chromosome due to crossing over
Correct answer
Normal crossing over and chromosome segregation, yielding completely viable gametes
