Summary Introduction
To determine:
The number ofpairs of chromosomes and set present in the karyotype as refer to Figure 10.3 “Research method”, in the textbook.
Introduction:
Karyotyping is a technique which is used to study the chromosomal aberration. In this study the detector analyze the structure of the chromosome.

Given the karyotype shown at right, is this a male or a female? Normal or abnormal? What would the phenotype of this individual be?
Considering Figure 2-8, is the sequence “pairing →replication → segregation → segregation” a good shorthand description of meiosis?
In the karyotype shown here, identify the sex chromosomes. Is this individual a male or a female?

What would happen if it was arranged from smallest to largest?arrow_forwardA diploid species has 3 pairs of chromosomes in its somatic cells. In males, the first pair is large submetacentric[1]; the second is medium acrocentric[2], and the third is small telocentric[3].
