What does deletion chromosome consists of?
There is no 'deletion chromosome'. You mean chromosome deletion, and it is a phenomenon where a chromosome disappears from cell's genetic layout.
What chromosome does tay-sachs disease affect?
chromosome 17 The correct answer is chromosome 15
What is an antonym for chromosome?
Chromosome does not have an antonym.
Illustration of metacentric chromosome?
A metacentric chromosome is one in which the centromere is located in the center of the chromosome.
What chromosome is the HBB gene on?
chromosome 11
Why do traits that are controlled by genes on the same chromosome not always appear in the expected ratio in offspring?
I think this has something to do with "crossing over," but I do not remember the details. All I remember is that the allelle of one chromosome may overlap and switch with the allelle of another chromosome, which results in unexpected ratios of the genotypes and phenotypes of traits represented by genes that would normally be found on the same chromosome.
Is an x chromosome and chromosome the same thing?
An x chromosome is specifically a feminine chromosome. With a x and y chromosome its male, with a x and x, it is a female.
Which chromosome contains the sex gene?
chromosome 1 chromosome 1

What is an antonym for chromosome?
Chromosome does not have an antonym.
Does an x chromosome looks the same as a y chromosome?
No. An 'X' chromosome looks like an 'X'. The 'Y' chromosome looks like a deformed 'X'. It is noticeably different to an 'X' chromosome. Also, the 'Y' chromosome is only a third of the size of an 'X' chromosome - an 'X' chromosome is 155 million base pares, while the 'Y' chromosome is only 58 million base pairs.
Why do some traits occur mainly in males even though they can be inherited only from their mothers?
Consider recessive traits on the X chromosome. Women have two of these, so it is statistically less likely that a woman would express this recessive trait and much more likely that it would be masked by a dominate X chromosome. If a male gets a recessive X from his mother ( remember, males have one X and one Y chromosome ) it is going to be expressed as there is no corresponding chromosome to mask it.

chromosome.

What is the purpose of nucleaus?
A nucleaus is DNA or more definitively a chromosome unbundled. Remember that they only coagulate during Mitosis or Meiosis. The nucleaus also controls the cell
What condition is carried on a chromosome other then the sex chromosome?
The gene that causes cystic fibrosis is located on chromosome 7, which is an autosome, not a sex chromosome.
