x chromosome... since female body has single type of chromosome, X chromosome
A barr body is normally found in the nucleus of which kind of human cell?
In females, the extra X chromosome becomes inactive and becomes the Barr body.
Females usually have one Barr body; males usually have none.
BARR BODIES CAN BE SEEN AS A SMALL APPENDAGE ON THE NUCLEOUS OF A POLYMORPHONUCLEAR NEUTROPHIL OF BLOOD CELLS FROM A FEMALE HUMAN. THESE ARE ONE OF THE WHITE CELL TYPES SEEN ON A BLOOD SMEAR DONE ON A CBC. tim goodman clinical lab scientist
The dense region that forms in the nucleus of female cells when one of the X chromomes is randomly inactivated is called The Barr Body.
The Barr Body
A Barr body is the inactivated X chromosome that is usually found in the nuclei of female somatic cells. It can also occur in males when there is an abnormality and the male is XXY instead of the normal XY, a condition known as Klinefelter's syndrome. In this case, the male somatic cells would also contain a Barr body. --- The Barr body is the highly-condensed chromatin structure taken up by an inctivated X chromosome. The number of Barr bodies equal the number of inactive chromosomes.

A Barr body is an inactivated X chromosome. An XXXY cell would contain 1 Barr Body. Men have no Barr bodies, and women have 1.
In females, the extra X chromosome becomes inactive and becomes the Barr body.

Yes, a female with Down syndrome has three copies of chromosome 21, but only two copies of the X chromosome. Regarding sex chromosomes, she is genetically normal. For this reason X chromosome inactivation would occur, and she would have one Barr body per cell.

Blood is found within the circulatory system of the mammalian body. This system comprises the heart and blood vessels.
X inactive chromosomes are called Legit Durification
That is what random X chromosomes do in the female somatic cells. They form Barr bodies. This is a methylated X chromosome that effectively shuts this chromosome down, one per cell in a random manner. This is done by the body because too much protein product is detrimental to organisms.
