what is the meaning of chromosomes
aneuploidy
recessive defect meaning that both copies of the chromosome must have the defect before it can be expressed. Females who have one X chromosome without the defect do not get this disease. Males, since they only have one X chromosome, get the disease
If you mean haploid, as in half of each chromosome, or containing only one chromatid from each full chromosome, thenthe cell is called haploid.
Normally sex-linked traits are carried only on the X chromosome, meaning a sex-linked gene can only be inherited from the father's X or the two mother's X's. However, there are occasions where the trait is carried down by the Y chromosome, meaning only the males would inherit it, and it would be expressed. This is very uncommon because the Y chromosome carries very little genetic material/information in comparison to the Y chromosome.
You can't catch it, it's a chromosomal disorder meaning you only have 1 X chromosome.
You can't catch it, it's a chromosomal disorder meaning you only have 1 X chromosome.
Tigers have 38 chromosomes.Tigers have 38 chromosomes.Tigers (Panthera tigris) have 38 chromosomes.
The chromosome number after meiosis is denoted as haploid, meaning that the cells have half the number of chromosomes compared to the original cell. In humans, the chromosome number after meiosis is 23.
The locus for eye color is on the X chromosome.
The word "chromosome" comes from the Greek words "chroma", meaning color, and "soma", meaning body, referring to the colored bodies seen in cells during cell division when chromosomes are most condensed and visible.
Mutation of a gene is not necessary for Klinefelter's Syndrome. It is an autosomal disorder meaning that an entire chromosome failed to disjunction during anaphase and so there are 2 X chromosomes and a Y chromosome.
