If you are pregnant there are many thoughts running through your mind including the potential health of your unborn baby. There is no guarantee the baby will be free if the genetic testing comes back clear, however, there is a good chance all will be well. If you have any concerns, talk to your doctor.

When a chromosome appears by itself within a karyotype and not as a pair it is known as?
monosomy.
What is a monomorphic locus?
I believe that it refers to a site in the chromosome which contains a gene that translates to a feature which appears identical in both males and females of the species.
What is an inherited disorder that appears more often in males than females?
Those transmitted on the Y chromosome (girls don't have a Y) Examples include reg/green color blindness.
What do dark bands in the chromosome indicate?
When DNA coils into a chromosome, it keeps its shape with the help of associated proteins. Where the DNA is very tightly coiled, and the proteins very condensed, that region appears as a dark band (G-band). G-bands are not very rich in genes, which means that it's ok that the DNA is tightly coiled, because it does not have to be very accessible anyway. Note that these bands are only visible when certain types of dye are used. Other types of dye will case gene-rich regions to stain darker and gene-poor regions to stain more brightly.

What does the chromosomes do in anaphase?
The centromeres split. The two chromatids separate, and each chromatid becomes a new chromosome. The new chromosomes move to opposite ends of the cell. The cell stretches out as the opposite ends are pushed apart.
Most sex-linked genes are found on which chromosome x y?
Many sex-linked genes are found on the X chromosome. More than 100 sex-linked genetic disorders have now been mapped to the X chromosome. The human Y chromosome is much smaller than the X chromosome and appears to contain only few genes.

monosomy.
What is the function of the B4 Chromosome?
It appears that on the B4, there is a gene that reinforces nicotine dependence.
What does it mean a trait is said to be sex-linked?
Generally the trait is on the X chromosome, as the Y is rather small and full of deleterious mutations and has few working genes. But and trait that is located on a sex chromosome is said to be sex linked. Naturally, women have two, XX, chromosomes, so ore protected statistically from many sex linked recessive disorders.
Cannot complete install program configuration?
There appears to be a configuration error. You have associated Konqueror with application/x-msdos-program, but it cannot handle this file type.
What is the genetic cause of Down syndrome?
Both syndrome's indicate the presence of a 47th chromosome (or extra part of a chromosome). Most humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes, totaling 46 chromosomes. For Down's syndrome, the 47th chromosome appears with the 21st pairing. For Klinefelter's syndrome the 47th chromosome appears with the 26th pairing (the gender chromosomes.)
Why has the category of psychophysiological disorders been dropped from the DSM?
It appears that all diseases have psychological components
What screen appears by default when the windows server 2008 operating system is first installed?
Initial Configuration Tasks
How do pigmentation disorders affect skin colour?
Pigmentation disorders can cause the skin to be darker or lighter than normal. They may also cause spots or skin that appears to have smooth white patches.
What causes mood disorder?
Mood disorders can be caused by a combination of factors, including genetics, biology, environment, and life experiences. Imbalances in brain chemicals (neurotransmitters) such as serotonin and dopamine may also play a role in the development of mood disorders like depression or bipolar disorder. Additionally, stressful life events, trauma, chronic illness, or substance abuse can contribute to the onset of mood disorders.
