Human Karyotype- (Diploid= 2n)
• Normal human- how many homologous pairs?
• What is the sex? • How many
chromosomes does each parent contribute?
What if chromosomes fail to separate properly?
NondisjunctionFailure of chromosomes to separate properly during meiosis
Abnormal Gametes result in abnormal diploid condition
SOMATIC TRISOMIESDown SyndromeTrisomy 13- cleft palate, eye brain circulatory defectsTrisomy 18- death in monthsTrisomy 16-death in months
SEX CHROMOSOMES TRISOMIESTurner Syndrome-X0- only viable monosomy in humans, Never mature sexually
Klinefelter Syndrome XXY
XYY- Super male- aggression
XXYYNOTE: the role of the Y chromosome…its presence yields malesness- otherwise default to female
