Solution
The possible results of nondisjunction in sex chromosomes are:
- YYY zygote
- Gamete is missing a sex chromosome
- XXX zygote
- Gamete contains an extra X
- Gamete contains an extra Y
Nondisjunction in sex chromosomes can lead to gametes that have an extra or missing sex chromosome, resulting in zygotes with abnormal numbers of sex chromosomes such as YYY or XXX. It does not directly result in a gamete missing an autosome as autosomes are not sex chromosomes.
