Q

non disjunction risk associated with mom or dad

why not the other

A

associated with mom bc when mother is born, she is born with set # of eggs (primary oocyte arrested in prophase 1)

risk inc as mother ages bc there is degradation of cohesins in egg

father: constant sperm production throughout life
