Chapter 10, Problem 10P

A researcher interested in studying a human gene on chromosome 21 and another gene on the X chromosome 21 and another gene on the X chromosome uses FISH probes to locate each gene. The chromosome 21 probe produces green fluorescent color, and the X chromosome probe produces red fluorescent color.

If the subject studied is female, how many green and red spots will be detected? Explain your answer.

If the subject studied is male, how many green and red spots will be detected? Explain your answer.

Identify the chromosomes in the spread based on their size and banding pattern. Arrange them as shown in the organized picture.   I have this image that I have no idea how to start! I get what I'm looking at but I'm having trouble determine if my order is right! Please help me. I've attached the spread of the chromosomes and an example of how they should look.
Give examples of convetional stains used for karyotyping and describe each briefly. Include which part(s) of the chromosomes these stains visualize. What is an ideogram? What is its significance? What are some of the medical applications of karyotyping?
