A karyotype is the orderly arrangement of chromosomes according to specific rules.

The chromosomes arranged on the basis of their size, the biggest on the left to the smallest on the right.

The centromeres of all the chromosomes are maintained on the same line.

Depending on the size and type of chromosomes they may be grouped into categories. for example, there are 7 groups of chromosomes in humans named groups A through G.

The autosomal chromosomes in a karyotype are depicted (by rearranging a photomicrograph) in pairs, ordered by size and position of the centromere for chromosomes of the same size. After the 22 sets of autosomal chromosomes are arranged, then the two sex chromosomes are arranged at the end. Refer to the related link below to observe a human karyotype.
