Describe a situation in which two aneuploid gametes would yield a euploid zygote

What will be an ideal response?


The aneuploidy of the gametes must be such that the same chromosomes are affected in each, one with an extra copy of the chromosome and the other only deficient in that same chromosome. Fusion of these two gametes would restore euploidy.
