Examples of karyotype in the following topics:
-
- A karyotype depicts the number, size, and any abnormalities of the chromosomes in an organism.
- A karyotype is the number and appearance of chromosomes.
- At its most basic, the karyotype may reveal genetic abnormalities in which an individual has too many or too few chromosomes per cell.
- This karyotype is of a male human.
- Describe a normal human karyotype and discuss the various abnormalities that can be detected using this technique
-
- A Robertsonian translocation in the karyotype of one of the parents may also cause Down syndrome.
- This karyotype indicates that the fetus has Down Syndrome as it has three chromosome 21 instead of two.
-
- This karyotype indicates that the fetus has Down Syndrome as it has three of chromosome 21 instead of two.
-
- Over time, presumably driven by aberrant growth signals, such lesions may accumulate epigenetic, genetic and karyotypic changes such as modified expression of hormone receptors and loss of heterozygosity.
-
- Of all of the chromosomal disorders, abnormalities in chromosome number are the most obviously identifiable from a karyotype and are referred to as aneuploidy.
-
- We can now view a human karyotype of all of the chromosomes in an individual to visualize chromosomal abnormalities in offspring, even before birth.
-
- A human males possesses XY chromosomes, as seen in the bottom left of this karyotype.
-
- The condensed chromosomes are viewed within the nucleus (top), removed from a cell in mitosis and spread out on a slide (right), and artificially arranged according to length (left); an arrangement like this is called a karyotype.
