Which disorders can be observed in a human karyotype
s2008m [1.1K]

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

What is the third type of variation in Mendel's theory?
Nikitich [7]
The three most important Mendel law is the law of dominance, law of segregation, and law of independent assortment. The law of dominance is when a trait is more recived or more dominate than other trait. For example a flower, if a flower is red most of the flowers will be red, but one will be white. The white flower has a recessive trait. The law of segregation is when a offspring randomly receive one allele of every trait from each parent. The law of independent assortment states that just because you received one allele doesn't mean another dominate allele will be passed also.

Which cell is most important for the defense against parasitic organisms ?
Murljashka [212]

I'd say, ina general way, that the most imporant cells in defense against parasitic organisms are definitely white blood cels, the cells responsible for defeating antigens, pathogens and deseases.

Although these might be the most important ones in that specific task (defending against parasitic organisms), all the cells in the immune system, along with other non-cell things are important, since they all play a specific role indispensable in our immune system.


Hope it helped,
