How many total chromosomes were on your karyotype sheets?

How many of the chromosomes are autosomes?

 Is this child a male or a female? How do you know?

Does this child appear to have a genetic disorder? If so, what genetic disorder does this child have?

The image displays a human karyotype, which is an organized profile of a person's chromosomes. Chromosomes are depicted and grouped according to their number and structures. From this karyotype, here is the detailed transcription:

1. Chromosome pair 1
2. Chromosome pair 2
3. Chromosome pair 3
4. Chromosome pair 4
5. Chromosome pair 5
6. Chromosome pair 6
7. Chromosome pair 7
8. Chromosome pair 8
9. Chromosome pair 9
10. Chromosome pair 10
11. Chromosome pair 11
12. Chromosome pair 12
13. Chromosome pair 13
14. Chromosome pair 14
15. Chromosome pair 15
16. Chromosome pair 16
17. Chromosome pair 17
18. Chromosome pair 18
19. Chromosome pair 19
20. Chromosome pair 20
21. Chromosome pair 21
22. Chromosome pair 22
23. Sex chromosomes (X and Y)

Each chromosome pair is numbered from 1 to 22, with the sex chromosomes listed at the end (XX for females and XY for males). This type of diagram is fundamental in genetics for identifying chromosomal abnormalities and understanding chromosomal behavior during reproduction.
