You suspect that a serious developmental disorder is due to a chromosome abnormality and prepare a karyotype from an affected in

dividual. In analyzing the karyotype, how could you distinguish trisomy from a chromosome structural defect such as a duplication?
The chromosome number in trisomy would be normal; in a duplication, there would be one more chromosome.

In both cases there would be an extra chromosome, but in trisomy there would be three chromatids on one chromosome and in a duplication there would be two chromatids on one chromosome.

In trisomy there would be one extra chromosome; in a duplication, the number of chromosomes would be normal, but one chromosome would have two copies of a portion of the chromosome.

The chromosome number in both cases would be normal, but in trisomy there would be three chromatids on one chromosome and in a duplication there would be two chromatids on one chromosome.

The correct answer is: In trisomy there would be one extra chromosome; in a duplication, the number of chromosomes would be normal, but one chromosome would have two copies of a portion of the chromosome.  

Trisomy is a type of polysomy (chromosome aberration with extra number of chromosome/s) and also type of aneuploidy (an abnormal number of chromosomes).

Instead of the normal two (one from mother one from father) chromosomes, people with trisomy have three chromosomes. This condition occurs when chromosome pairs fail to separate properly during cell division.

Duplication, on the other hand, usually refers to a region of DNA that is being duplicated. This condition occurs as products of several types of errors in DNA replication and repair machinery.

How does the chromosome theory of inheritance provide an explanation of mendelian inheritance?
morpeh [17]
Mendel proposed the law of segregation and the law of independent assortment toexplain the inheritance behind his pea plant traits. A hundred years later, Boveri and Sutton developed the chromosome theory of inheritance, which stated thatchromosomes were responsible for the heredity Mendel observed.

O avoid compromising your car's aerodynamic properties, you should avoid ________.
Len [333]

Answer:

to carry heavy load on the vehicle's outside

Explanation:

Aerodyanmic properties of a car refer to its interactions with moving air and the properties which govern smooth movement of the car through air. Aerodynamics of a car address the concerns like lowering noise emission, prevention of heavy load and avoiding the luggage dragging.

Now when there will be great load outside the car,the air will resist the movement of car more, so it will be difficult for the car to cut through the air. Moreover, when a car carries huge amount of load outside its body, the frictional force by aerodynamic drag increases greatly. This can badly effect the performance of high speed cars like sports cars but for other normal cars it poses less hazards.

Hope it helps!

Describe matter and elements
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The term matter refers to something that consumes space and has mass, the "stuff" of which the universe is made, in other words. All matter consists of substances called atoms, which have different chemical and physical properties and can not be broken down by ordinary chemical reactions into other substances.
