∙ 15y agoNo not all but certain genetic disorders which are due to chormosomal abreation can be detected by karyotyping of ones chromosomes. Those disease which are due to alteration in genes or no. of genes and not visible on the morphology of chormosome can not be detected.

How are karyotypes associated with genetic diseases?
no and it is steryotype they just might be weird
What is a picture called of all the chromosome in a cell?
A picture of chromosomes is called a "karyotype."
Turner's syndrome describe the genetic makeup of someone with this disorder?
The karyotype is 45X or 45X/46XX depending on whether all or only some of the cells are affected.
What shows chromosomes present in a cell?
A karyotype is a picture of all the chromosomes in a person's cells. A human has 46 chromosomes in all but sex cells.
What species has the same karyotype?
maybe all species have the same karyotype;/
How are karyotypes associated with genetic diseases?
no and it is steryotype they just might be weird
Does a normal karyotype mean a baby will be born without any diseases?
No. Not all diseases are due to abnormal chromosomes. Diseases can be caused by exposure to microorganisms and toxins in uterus.
How is karyotype used by genetics?
a karyotype is a picture of all the chromosomes in a cell. These pictures are used to check for chromosomal abnormalities, such as too few or too much which can result in a genetic disability. Such as Down Syndrome.
Describe a normal karyotype and a abnormal karyotype?
A normal karyotype will show all 23 chromosomes at normal growth, and the end will show an either XY (boy) or XX (girl). Karyotypes of people with autosomal diseases and other diseases associated with chromosomes will show abnormalities on that certain chromosome. For example, Down syndrome is caused by a whole extra chromosome on chromosome 21. This extra chromosome can be seen on the karyotype.

What is a picture of all the chromisomes in a cell?
This is known as a karyogram.

What is a karyotype is used to track the occurrence of a trait in a family?
No, a pedigree is a schematic used to track a genetic trait. Karyotypes are images of the chromosomes themselves and are used to diagnose genetic disorders caused by different number of chromossomes, such as Down's syndrome, Turner, Kleinefelter etc..
What are karotype?
A karyotype is a picture of all the chromosomes in a cell (x and y) arranged in pairs. Doctors use this to see if a person has the correct number of chromosomes in his or her body. They also use this for other things. The 23rd pair of chromosomes in the karyotype shows if the person is male or female. A girl would have to x chromosomes (xx) while a boy would have a pair of x and y chromosomes (xy). Karyotypes can show genetic disorders or mutations, such as Down syndrome. In down syndrome, the person has an extra chromosome on the 21st pair. There are only supposed to be 23 pairs (56 single chromosomes). By using a karyotype, Genetic Counselors can determine whether a couple can have a chance of having a baby with a genetic disorder.
What is a picture of all the chromsomes in a cell?
A karyotype.
