Answer:

Karyotype

Explanation:

A karyotype is a picture of all the chromosomes in an individual. These images are analyzed by geneticists to identify structural changes in the chromosomes or to identify differences in number as is the case for Down syndrome.

Karyotyping is used to identify certain genetic diseases associated with chromosomal aberrations. This is associated with the field of cytogenetics.

  • Acute lymphocytic leukemia gets its name from the fact that it advances quickly and produces immature blood cells rather than mature ones.
  • Acute lymphoblastic leukemia in children is more frequent than other cancers, however it is curable in a significant portion of cases. Adult survival rates are lower, although they are rising.

snow_tiger [21]

(a) Agree

It is probable that less sticklebacks will have pelvic spines in Bear Paw Lake, as it is a smaller region without as much competition. Predators may be much lower in such an environment, eliminating a need for such protection. In the ocean, however, there is much biodiversity and competition, so the fish need pelvic spines to protect themselves.
