- What is the chromosome number of the individual? ___________________ Give the sex of the individual. ______________ Based from the karyotype, identify the name of the genetic condition of the individual. List down two (2) distinctive characteristics of the affected individual.arrow_forwardMr. Chan's family consists of mom, dad and four kids. The parents have one daughter and one son together, another daughter is from the mother's previous marriage, and the other son is adopted. Here are the DNA analysis results: Mom Dad Child 1 = Child 2 Child 3 Child 4 I 1. Which child is adopted? Why? 2. Which child is from the mother's previous marriage? Why? 3.

A couple is trying to determine the likelihood of passingon the disease to their future children (represented by the ? symbolabove) because the hemophilia runs in the woman’s family. Turner syndrome is a disease in which an individual is bornwith only a single X chromosome. Suppose the woman in thecouple is a carrier for hemophilia and has a child with Turnersyndrome. Would this child have the disease?arrow_forward
