We covered Karyotypes.
What does a Karyotype show?
What a Karyotype does not show?
What does a Karyotype show?
- Check if the 46 chromosomes are present (in HUMANS, other organisms/life forms have different numbers of chromosomes)
- Check the presence of the two identical chromosomes and 2 sex chromosomes
- Check if there are any missing or rearranged chromosomes
What a Karyotype does not show?
- Presence and location of small mutations. So if diseases are caused by small mutations they cannot be predicted
- Individual DNA strands or genes
- The number of genes in any given area of a chromosome
- Things like Diabetes, ADHD or Hermaphroditic characteristics.
