Duplication
B.
Deficiency
C.
Both A and B
AnswerD.
None of these
Answer: Option C
Solution
Answer: Option C
Solution:
The resulting two daughter cells produced by the bridge-breakage fusion cycle will have Both Duplication and Deficiency.Breakage-fusion-bridge (BFB) cycle is a mechanism of chromosomal instability, discovered by Barbara McClintock in the late 1930s.
The BFB cycle begins when the end region of a chromosome, called its telomere, breaks off. When that chromosome subsequently replicates it forms two sister chromatids which both lack a telomere.
