In rabbits, the gene for grey fur (G) is dominant over that for black fur (g). In a litter, if 50% rabbits are grey, then the possible parental cross combination is
GG x Gg
gg X gg
GG x GG
Gg x gg

Which of the following occurs due to monosomy of sex chromosome
Down's syndrome
Turner's syndrome
Haemophilia
Sickle cell anaemia
B.
Turner's syndrome
Turner's syndrome is caused due to the absence of one of the X chromosomes i.e., 45 chromosomes total with sex chromosomes as XO. Such females are sterile as ovaries are rudimentary. Besides this, other features include lack of other secondary sexual characters, etc.

In family B, both the parents are heterozygous recessive
In family A, both the parents are heterozygous recessive.
Assertion: In a pedigree analysis, <5> represents five unaffected offsprings.
Reason: In a pedigree analysis, the offsprings are numbered with arabic numerals (1, 2, 3 .....) and a generation is numbered with roman numerals (I, II, III...).
