Title: Meiotic nondisjunction is much more likely than mitotic nondisjunction. Based o Post by: PercySOL on Apr 24, 2014 Meiotic nondisjunction is much more likely than mitotic nondisjunction. Based on this observation, would you conclude that meiotic nondisjunction is usually due to nondisjunction during meiosis I or meiosis II? Explain your reasoning.
Almost 80% occur in the first meiotic division. Comes straight from the notes, but can't really use "because the book says" so as reasoning can I?

I believe it's during crossing-over, the chromosomes stick together - so Meiosis I. |
