question 29

Multiple Choice

A eukaryotic diploid cell from an organism with the ZZ-ZW sex determination system has two pairs of autosomes and a pair of sex chromosomes, Z and W, shown here.

Which of the following is a possible normal combination of chromosomes in one of the subsequent two cells after the completion of meiosis II?

• A) one chromosome with the A allele, one with the B allele, one Z, one W
• B) one chromosome with the A allele, one with the a allele, one with the B allele, one with the b allele, one Z, one W
• C) a pair of chromosomes with A alleles, a pair of chromosomes with B alleles, a pair of Z chromosomes
• D) one chromosome with an a allele, one chromosome with a B allele, one W
• E) one chromosome with the B allele, one with the b allele, one Z
