a.
To explain: Different types of gametes produced by man who is a carrier of Robertsonian translocation between chromosome
Introduction: Chromosomal analysis or chromosomal karyotype is used to find the chromosomal abnormalities. It is used to diagnose genetic diseases and birth defects. Disorders due to chromosomal abnormalities such as Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, and Edwards syndrome can be diagnosed using chromosomal karyotyping.

Possibility:6
c.
To explain:
Proportion of surviving offspring expected to be carriers considering that trisomy and monosomy are lethal.
c.
Explanation of Solution
In case, if the trisomy and monosomy of chromosome
Thus, Robertsonian translocation creates a large metacentric chromosome and a fragment that often fails to segregate or chromosome with short arms.
