Question

Which of the following statements is/are true? Choose only the best answer.
All three of the other statements are true.
Genome rearrangements can be caused by errors during meiosis.
Transposable elements can result in gene deletion by facilitating unequal
crossing over.
DNA polymerase replication errors can lead to changes in the number of repeats
in simple sequence DNA.

Expert Solution

Step 1

Genome rearrangements can be caused by errors during Meiosis-True

When a pair of homologous chromosome fail to separate during Meiosis 1 or Meiosis 2, Non-disjunction occurs causing Aneuploidy that means the zygote will have an abnormal amount of chromosome.

Transposable elements can result in a gene deletion by facilitating unequal crossing over- True

When transposition generates 2 copies of same sequence in the similar orientation, recombination can delete the DNA between them
