Can you build your y chromosome with homeopathy?
No. There is no physical way to lengthen or alter your Y chromosome. Modern genetics and gene therapy may be able to alter chromosomes, but even then, results are varied.
How can gene therapy help a person with hemophilia?
When using gene therapy doctors can replace hemophilia by replacing the defective in the X chromosome. It would help person out a lot but a person would still have a little trouble by the way I'm in the 7th grade.
Describe how a gene therapy might be used in the future to treat a person with hemophilia?
Doctors can replace the defective gene on the X chromosome. Then the blood would clot normally.
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
Why is gene therapy successful?
Gene therapy is not always successful. Sometimes when inserting genes into the chromosome, we misplace them, and the original problem is aggravated. Gene therapy can be somewhat effective at reducing symptoms of genetic diseases though.

What are the three area of current research that utilize chromosome maps?
genomic research, rate of crossing over, genetic disease therapy

What is the purpose of genetic mapping?
Genetic mapping is mapping genes to a specific location on a chromosome. therefore the purpose is that it helps to tell where on the chromosome a mutation is. For example if scientists find were on a chromosome a gene for a certain mutation, they can conduct gene therapy to replace it with a normal version of that gene. Basically it just tells scientists the location of a mutation so they can fix it more efficiently.
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 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.
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.
