A chromosomal mutation that occurs during meiosis may or may not be expressed in an organism’s offspring. A similar mutation that only occurs during mitosis of a body cell will not be expressed in the organism’s offspring. Evaluate these claims. Determine whether or not they are true, and explain your reasoning.

Give explanation X and Y chromosomes are not homologs, but in meiosis they do pair and segregate in XY organisms to create 50% haploid gametes with an X chromosome and 50% haploid gametes with a Y chromosome. How is pairing achieved? a. Since all other homologous chromosomes pair, the remaining two chromosomes pair by default. b Pairing proteins are capable of binding to different genes on the X and Y chromosomes, which allows them to pair. c.
