What does the 24 in chromosome 8q24 mean?
8 is the chromosome number, q means the long arm of the chromosome, and the 24 is the position on the long arm. It's like coordinates to find the position on the chromosome.
What is the designation for the short arm of a chromosome?
Chromosome # + pso the short arm of Chromosome 11 is referred to as 11p
What is a list of the 3 parts of a chromosome?
Telomere - The ends of the chromosome. Centromere - The primary constriction of the chromosome. Chromatid - A single molecule of DNA. The centromere also divides the chromosome into a short arm (p) and a long arm (q).
What is a single arm of a chromosome called?
chromatid
Where is it possible to learn about the functions of the chromosome?
The functions of a chromosome are complex, and so the available resources detailing such functions are quite numerous. For individuals looking for overviews of the chromosome, Wikipedia is a good source. For those looking for in-depth information and the latest findings, PubMed is a good starting point.

Which arm is chromosome 7 on for the disease Cystic fibrosis?
Long arm
What does a chromosome contain?
A chromosome is a part of DNA that consists of a long arm and a short arm connected at the center called the Centromere.
What does the q in chromosome 8q24 mean?
The 'q' refers to the long arm of the chromosome. A prototypical condensed chromosome has two arms: a short arm and a long arm. The 'p' stands for the French word 'petit' (which means small). The 'q' doesn't stand for anything in particular, but because 'q' comes after 'p' in the alphabet, it is used to refer to the long arm of the chromosome.
What is the designation for the short arm of a chromosome?
Chromosome # + pso the short arm of Chromosome 11 is referred to as 11p
What is the syndrome of the missing long leg of chromosome 5?
I think you mean long arm...chromosomes don't have legs.

Telomere - The ends of the chromosome. Centromere - The primary constriction of the chromosome. Chromatid - A single molecule of DNA. The centromere also divides the chromosome into a short arm (p) and a long arm (q).
What is an acrocentric?
An acrocentric is a chromosome which has the centomere, the central region, closer to one end than the other, thus having one short arm and one long arm.
What is a single arm of a chromosome called?
chromatid

What do genes on the same chromosome do?
code of different functions =)
What are P and Q arms of a chromosome?
The p arm is the shorter arm of the chromosome. The q arm is the longer arm. For chromosomes which are metacentric, the arms tend to be the same length. For submetacentric, acrocentric, or telocentric, the p and q arms show clear differences in length- and thus are classified accordingly.
