A karyotype would be unable to Turner syndrome?
No, a karyotype shows if a person has Turner syndrome.
Whst is the syndrome if a person has a karyotype with the chromosome XXY?
excellent prognosis. men with xyy syndrome (jacob's syndrome) live comfortably.
What can be diagnosed by examining a karyotype of an individuals white blood cells?
Down Syndrome
What are characteristics of Turners syndrome?
Depending on the type of Turner syndrome a person has, their karyotype is either: 45X - classic Turner syndrome - second X chromosome missing from all cells 45X/46XX - Mosaic Turner syndrome - second X chromosome missing from some cells. There is another type of Turner syndrome, but it has a more complicated karyotype and I am not sure what the karyotype is off the top of my head.
WHAT NOTATION WOULD YOU USE TO CHARACTERIZE PATIENT AS KARYOTYPE?
Patient A has Down Syndrome or a trisomy 21. The notation would be 47xy+21.
A karyotype would be unable to Turner syndrome?
No, a karyotype shows if a person has Turner syndrome.
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).
What type of diagnosis is from a karyotype?
A karyotype tells you if you have the normal ammont of chromosomes (46 for humans), it can also tell you if you have more or less and if this is the case what it is that you have. The most common syndrome would be Down Syndrome, or trisomy 21. Down Syndrome is also called trisomy 21 because if you look at a karyotype from someone that has this syndrome then they have three coppies of the 21st chromosome.
What is karyotype used for?
It's used to check for abnormalities, such as Down Syndrome
Can a karyotype reveal turner syndrome?
Yes. A karyotype will show the chromosomes and an affected person will have XXY instead of XY for a normal male.
Whst is the syndrome if a person has a karyotype with the chromosome XXY?
excellent prognosis. men with xyy syndrome (jacob's syndrome) live comfortably.
What can be diagnosed by examining a karyotype of an individuals white blood cells?
Down Syndrome
What type of disorders are karyotyping used to diagnose?
Chromosomal disorders can be observed in a human karyotype. It can show whether there are extra chromosomes, or missing chromosomes, or malformed chromosomes, or whether chromosomes have extra pieces, or missing pieces.
What is a person with Turner Syndrome missing in their karyotype?
The second X chromosome other females have.
What type of picture would a biologist look at to determine whether a fetus has Down syndrome?
a Karyotype
Is the karyotype of a person with schizophrenia normal or abnormal?
The majority of people with schizophrenia have normal karyotypes. If the karyotype is abnormal, it will be a coincidence and not the cause of the schizophrenia. For example, you can have Turner syndrome (1 X chromosome) and schizophrenia at the same time, but the Turner syndrome wouldn't have caused the schizophrenia.
How is karyotype used by genetics?
a karyotype is a picture of all the chromosomes in a cell. These pictures are used to check for chromosomal abnormalities, such as too few or too much which can result in a genetic disability. Such as Down Syndrome.
