Nondisjunction mutation is the type of mutation that would a karyotype best help to discover.

An individual's entire set of chromosomes is known as their karyotype.

The phrase can also refer to an image created in a lab showing a person's chromosomes separated from one cell and organized in numerical order.

A karyotype can be used to check for chromosomal numbers or structural problems.

The missegregation of a homologous pair of chromosomes during meiosis is known as nondisjunction.

A new cell with an excessive amount of genetic material is created as a result. This kind of chromosomal mutation leads to a multitude of clinical problems.

An important example is Down's syndrome.

Trisomy of autosomes, or chromosome 21, is the cause of Down's syndrome.

It has an extra copy of chromosome 21.

Only one percent of instances had mosaicism along with Down's syndrome.

Why are phylogenetic trees considered hypotheses?
ale4655 [162]
They are considered hypotheses for a few reasons : Evolution of organisms has been occurring for hundreds of thousands of years.Since no one has actually been around that long to observe exactly what happened, phylogenetic trees are based off of 'clues' we have such as the fossil record and mutations in mitochondrial DNA. Therefore the 'proof' we use to make phylogenetic trees is not necessarily solid 'proof' but is instead facts put together through strong correlations.
