B.triploid individual
C.gynandromorphs
D.both (a) and (b)

Gynandromorphs are those individuals in ehich one part ot the body is female which another part is male. it occurs due to irregularity in mitosis at the first cleavage of the zygote. One of the X-chromosomes of an XX (female) zygote lags in the spindle, one daughter nucleus receives only one X-chromosomes while the other receives two X-chromosomes. A mosaic body pattern is thus established.
