- Analyze the karyotype shown. Indicate if it is a chromosomal male or achromosomal female. If the karyotype is normal, write the word normal under name or description. If the karyotype is abnormal, name or describethe disorder.arrow_forwardAlbinism, lack of pigmentation in humans, results from an autosomal recessive gene. Two parents with normal pigmentation have an albino child. What is the probability that their next 3 children will have nornal pigmentation? 9/16 27/64 1/4 1/64 1/16arrow_forward. Down’s syndrome in humans (trisomy 21), with 47 chromosomes in each diploid somatic cell, is characterized by which of the following genetic features? it involves a duplication of only one chromosome it involves a deletion of only one chromosome it involves a duplication of the entire genome it involves a duplication of only one gene it involves a deletion of only one genearrow_forward
- A man affected with HoHomania and a woman affected with HoHomania mate and have an unaffected son. Which of the following mechanisms of inheritance can not be ruled out? Choose all that can not be ruled out. Autosomal Dominant Autosomal Recessive Y-linked All of the mechanisms shown can be ruled out X-linked Recessive X-linked Dominantarrow_forwardPlace the labels In the correct rows. A label may be used once, more than once, or not at all. An example in humans is XO Usually lethal in humans Rarely lethal in humans 3n Not having an exact multiple of the haploid number of chromosomes 2n-1 2n+1 1n An example in humans is XXY Aneuploid Monosomy Trisomy Definition Lethality Examplearrow_forwardNondisjunction which can affect sex chromosomes as well as autosomal chromosomes as a common cause of genetic disorders. Use the space provided to illustrate the process of nondisjunction with the end result being that one cell exhibits in the monopsony me while other one exhibits trisomy. Hint: a sperm will fertilize the egg and add it’s chromosome in the last step)arrow_forward
- Observation 2: Complete monosomies are generally not viable except for monosomy X. Complete trisomies are viable for chromosomes 13, 18, 21, X, and Y. Phenotype caused by rearrangement depends on the type of rearrangement, the size and the location of the affected segment. Question: Why do you think X chromosome is mostly involved?arrow_forwardAbnormal chromosome division during mitosis can result in 47,XXX syndrome. Which statement regarding 47,XXX syndrome is FALSE? -Those with 47,XXX syndrome have 3 copies of chromosome 47 -Thise with 47,XXX may have interllectual disabilities -47,XXX syndrome occurs only in the female sex -47,XXX results in a mosaic phenotypearrow_forwardExplain this to me…..arrow_forward
- Explain in detail 2 human chromosomal disorders. What is the chromosomal abnormality? What are the signs, symptoms, and/or resulting syndrome?arrow_forwardPresent clinical consequences of most commonly identified numerical chromosome abnormalities.arrow_forwardPedigree 2: A. What is the most likely mode of inheritance of this disease? Choose from: autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, X-linked dominant, X-linked recessive. B State the genotypes of individuals # 1 #4. C If individual #3 has another daughter with the same partner, what is the probability that this daughter will be affected (show the disease)?arrow_forward
