With the onset of the JAG1 mutation starting from the formation of the zygote‚ the fetus would start having problems with the cell development signal pathways. The primary organ affected by this would be the liver‚ reducing the amount of interlobular bile ducts. Bile ducts are important to carry bile that is being produced

way that the chromosomes are handled to make gametes. The general gist of meiosis is that a homologous pair is split twice to make four separate cells that have the haploid number of chromosomes meaning when they fuse with other gametes they form a zygote with the diploid number of chromosomes. There are two major parts of the meiosis nuclear division cycle that result in four unique gametes at the end. The first part happens during meiosis one and is called ‘crossing over’‚ this is when a pair of
