Answer:

Answered below.

Explanation:

A karyotype is defined as the size, shape, and number of chromosomes present in an organism.

An analysis is usually done on a karyotype to see if individuals have abnormal numbers or sizes of chromosomes. Such abnormalities may arise from;

Deletion: which implies that a chromosomal part is missing.

Duplication: where parts of a chromosome are repeated.

Translocation: which occurs when a chromosomal part breaks off and gets attached to another chromosome.

Nondisjunction: in which chromosomes do not separate from the parent cells.

Common chromosomal disorders arising from these abnormalities include;

Down's syndrome

Edwards syndrome

Turner's syndrome

Klinefelter syndrome

Prada-willi syndrome

Cri-du-chat syndrome

Patau's syndrome

Compare parasympathetic nervous system vs sympathetic
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

Parasympathetic nervous system effects are slow or inhibit function, where is sympathetic, is responsible for the intense physical activity.

Explanation:

The autonomic nervous system or ANS is divided into 2 distinct systems on the basis of their effects- the parasympathetic nervous system and the sympathetic nervous system.

Both of these have opposite actions on the functions that they maintain.

The sympathetic nervous system regulates the body for a high level of physical activity and also known as fight or flight. It fasts the functions of the body according to the situation.

The parasympathetic nervous system is having the opposite effect of the sympathetic nervous system slows high energy functions and relaxes the body.  

Thus, the comparison of these nervous systems is mention above.
