Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Mitotic nondisjunction can occur due to the inactivation of either topoisomerase II, condensin, or separase. This will result in 2 aneuploid daughter cells, one with 47 chromosomes (2n+1) and the other with 45 chromosomes (2n-1). Nondisjunction in meiosis I occurs when the tetrads fail to separate during anaphase I.
