Question 1

In the case of nondisjunction producing a trisomic condition, how might it be possible to determine in which parent this event occurred? Might it be possible to determine whether this event occurred in the first or second meiotic division?

Question 2

Nondisjunction of the sex chromosomes produces both Klinefelter syndrome (XXY) and Turner syndrome (XO), but among live births, 1 in 1,000 males is XXY, but only 1 in 10,000 females is XO. What mechanisms can account for this tenfold difference in frequency?

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa.
