How To Use Nondisjunction In A Sentence

However, no investigation has been made into whether homologous chromosome pairs or bivalents with altered patterns of recombination events may also be at increased risk for nondisjunction in mammals other than humans.
This makes sense, since these cancers often fail to inactivate the X chromosome, and X chromosome nondisjunction leads to more male worms. Ars Technica
The condition is caused by an error in cell division called nondisjunction. Times, Sunday Times

Embryos that are trisomic contain, instead of matched pairs of chromosomes, one too many of a given chromosome, most commonly chromosome 13, 18, 21 (which is responsible for Down syndrome), X, or Y. Trisomies are the result of a glitch known as nondisjunction, which occurs principally during the creation of egg cells (although sperm cells may also exhibit such errors). Delayed Childbearing
When nondisjunction occurs, the resulting eggs may carry too few or too many chromosomes, a state called aneuploidy. Delayed Childbearing
Most of what goes wrong during meiosis-to-fertilization-to-mitosis results in chromosomal abnormalities, usually nondisjunction, thus providing a mechanism for aneuplodiy -- rather than an insistence that it really does happen.

There was no evidence to show an effect of maternal or paternal age on the frequency of nondisjunction.
Males arise spontaneously through nondisjunction of the X chromosome during gametogenesis and the subsequent fusion with a normal gamete, yielding an XO individual.
