Unequal crossing over during prophase i can result in one sister chromosome with a deletion and another with a duplication. a mutated form of hemoglobin, so-called hemoglobin lepore, exists in the human population. hemoglobin lepore has a deleted series of amino acids. if this mutated form was caused by unequal crossing over, what would be an expected consequence?

The   expected  consequences  due  to    unequal  crossing  over  are   as  follows
Presence  of  a  person  whose   hemoglobin  contain  two  copies  of  series  of   amino  acid  that  is  deleted  in  hemoglobin lepero. 
unequal  crossing  over  is type  of   gene  deletion  event    that  delete a  sequence in  one  strand  and  replace  t  with  a  duplicate from  sister  chromatid.

Based on the hypothesis above, the best answer for this question would be:

 

B) There should also be persons whose hemoglobin contains two copies of the series of amino acids that is deleted in hemoglobin Lepore.

 

This is mostly cause by the genetic mutation in the process.
