In addition to revealing chromosomal abnormalities karyotype gives information about the gender of an individual.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A karyotype is the complete information about the chromosomes of an individual, the size, number and type of chromosomes. Analysis of karyotype of an individual gives information about chromosomal abnormalities and genetic disorders if any, in that individual. It is not the only information karyptype gives.

It also gives an idea about the sex of the individual. The sex chromosome of females is homozygous and that of males is heterozygous. Sex chromosome of a female can not be homozygous or heterozygous. Rather, a female can be heterozygous or homozygous for a given allele.

ivanzaharov [21]
La Niña follows after an El Niño. Its sea surface temperature will be lower than the natural one by 3-5 degree Celcius which tells us that it is cooler than the average temperature. It is the positive state of the El Niño. It really disturbs the natural weather patterns which could result to extreme storms.

Whats are the functions of the integumentary system ?
Verdich [7]

Answer:

Absorption

Thousands of pores on the surface of the skin can absorb vitamins, acids, water and oxygen in order to provide moisture and nourishment to our skin.

Excretion

The skin is the body’s largest waste removal system. Toxins are released through the sweat glands and pores.

Secretion

The skin secretes sebum, a mixture of oils that keeps the skin soft and supple. The layer of sebum on the outermost layer of the skin is known as the acid mantle. When intact the acid mantle has a PH that ranges from 4.5-5.5. The acid mantle is acidic in nature to protect the skin from outside invasion.

Regulation

The skin regulates the body’s temperature by sweating; when water from sweat on the skin evaporates it gives off heat and cools the body.  The body’s temperature increases or by shivering or getting goosebumps when the body is cold. The contraction of muscles releases energy that warms the body.

Sensation

The skin contains millions of nerve endings that transport stimuli. These nerve endings allow humans to detect sensation such as heat, cold, pain and pressure.
