The Nucleus of a neuron is an oval shaped membrane-bound structure found in the soma or body of the neuron. It contains the nucleolus and chromosomes, necessary for the coded production of proteins within the cell. The nucleolus of the nucleus produces ribosomes. The genetic information of an organism is coded within the long strands of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) from which the chromosomes are made. DNA is composed of two long chains that are interconnected in a helical arrangement. The sub units of a chromosome (genes) when activated induce the production of messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA). mRNA is a duplicate of the information contained in the gene. mRNA leaves the nucleus and attaches to a ribosome, where is serves as a template for the production of a protein molecule
Parts of a neuron
Neurons vary in size, shape, and structure depending on their role and location. However, nearly all neurons have three essential parts: a cell body, an axon, and dendrites.
1. Cell body
2. Axon
3. Dendrites
Myelinated neurons are typically found in the peripheral nerves (sensory and motor neurons), while non-myelinated neurons are found in the brain and spinal cord. Dendrites or nerve endings.
It has all membrane bound organelles

HYPOTONIA.
Hypotonia refers basically to decreased muscle tone. It can be a condition on its own, called benign congenital hypotonia, or it can be indicative of another problem where there is progressive loss of muscle tone, such as muscular dystrophy or cerebral palsy.
The lower motor neuron (LMN) on the other hand is the efferent neuron of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) that connects the central nervous system (CNS) with the muscle to be innervated.
Hence, HYPOTONIA is congruent of the patient's diagnosis.
Answer:
Karotyping is a chromosomal analysis. It can be used to look for diseases caused by irregularities in the chromosomes, such as Down syndrome.
Explanation:
Karotyping is a chromosomal analysis of the chromosomal constitution of the nucleus of a cell, which is equal to the complete chromosomal makeup of a person. The chromosomes of each species have a certain structure both in size, shape and their own band when they are stained in the laboratory. This allows them to be identified as well as to know if all the genetic information is in the correct order. In addition to numerical abnormalities in chromosomes, structural alterations mean that certain chromosomal regions can be duplicated or even absent. This gain or loss of genetic material has highly varied consequences depending on the genes involved. Another type of structural alterations are translocations and inversions. The karyotype can be studied in search of diseases caused by irregularities in the chromosomes, such as Down syndrome. It also helps to identify problems that a baby conceived through assisted reproduction may have when it is born, by extracting the karyotype that is found in the amniotic fluid of the embryo.
