Why is karyotype called 45xo?
This particular karyotype has 45 chromosomes (instead of the usual 46). "XO" tells us that the karyotype is missing a sex chromosome: the individual has an X, but no homologous sex chromosome (X or Y) to complete the diploid pair.
What shows chromosomes present in a cell?
A karyotype is a picture of all the chromosomes in a person's cells. A human has 46 chromosomes in all but sex cells.
Where are sex chromosomes found?
The sex chromosomes will usually be in the last place on the karyotype (typically the bottom right corner). If/when the karyotype is numbered, the sex chromosomes should be numbered as the 23rd pair.
What is a normal male karyotype?
The male karyotype has 46 chromosomes the same as the female karyotype:23 chromosomes are inherited from your father.
What do normal Karyotype look like?
They have 22 chromosome pairs or 44 chromosome and 2 sex cell. Here's a picture:

One of the pair of chromosomes that determines the sex of an individual?
The 23rd pair in a karyotype shows if it will be male or female
What is human karyotype?
A karyotype is defined as the chromosomes of a cell. The human karyotype has one pair of sex chromosomes and 22 pairs of autosomal chromosomes.

A karyotype is a picture of all the chromosomes in a person's cells. A human has 46 chromosomes in all but sex cells.
What pair of chromosomes is not homologous in a normal male karyotype?
sex chromosomes
How many autosomes are present in a normal human karyotype?
There are 46 chromosomes in a human Karyotype.
What best describes Human Karyotype?
Human karyotype = 1 pair of sex determining chromosomes, either xx or xy, and 22 pairs of autosomes.
What best describes the human karyotype?
Human karyotype = 1 pair of sex determining chromosomes, either xx or xy, and 22 pairs of autosomes.
What can karyotype analysis detect?
Karyotype analysis can be used to easily determine sex and a number of genetic disorders, such as Down's Syndrome (trisomy-21) or Klinefelter's Syndrome (XXY).
Which of the following are shown in a karyotype?
what combination of sex chromosomes is shown in the image: XY (APEX)
What does karytype mean?
Karyotype refers to genetic testing. A karyotype is a pictorial analysis of the number, form, and size of an individual's chromosomes. Cells from any nucleated replicating body tissue (except red blood cells, nerves or muscles) can be used for testing. The most commonly used tissues are white blood cells and fetal cells in amniotic fluid. The female karyotype is 46XX chromosomes and the male karyotype is 46XY chromosomes. Karyotypes can be used to determine the sex of a child and the presence of any gross chromosomal abnormalities
A karyotype of a human female shows that she has only one sex chromosome what is the genotype for her condition?
XO
