I can’t tell which letters (A–H) produce monosomy without seeing the gamete diagrams or a description of how many chromosomes each gamete contains. Please either upload the image or list how many (and which) chromosomes are present in gametes A–H.
How to identify the correct ones once you provide the diagram/info:
- A normal gamete has the haploid number n.
- A gamete with one fewer chromosome (n−1) will produce a zygote with 2n−1 (monosomy) when fused with a normal gamete (n).
- A gamete with one extra chromosome (n+1) will produce trisomy (2n+1).
So pick the gametes that show one missing chromosome relative to the haploid set.
