Chapter 16.1, Problem 1C
Summary Introduction
To determine: The types of information a human karyotype can provide.
Concept introduction: Normally, each cell in humans has 46 chromosomes (23 pairs). Twenty-two pairs of chromosomes are autosomes, and one pair is sex chromosomes (X and Y). Any variations in chromosomal arrangements leading to defects can be identified by karyotyping, pedigree analysis, and DNA sequencing.
