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.
Achondroplasia is caused by a mutation in the FGFR3 gene and is not related to a specific karyotype. It is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern, and individuals with achondroplasia typically have a normal karyotype (46 chromosomes in humans).
Yes. A karyotype will show the chromosomes and an affected person will have XXY instead of XY for a normal male.
Sometimes they do. It depends on the person. Additionally, schizophrenia is often episodic. In between episodes a person with schizophrenia may seem relatively normal.
As a noun, an abnormal is a person or object which is not normal.
Anything that is not in the normal behaviours of a person or people
They help with removing the symptoms of schizophrenia. It is easier to function and live normally without hallucinating or having delusions.
A karyotype is an organized arrangement of a person's chromosomes. In a karyotype, chromosomes are sorted and numbered by size, from largest to smallest.
A karyotype is a picture of all the chromosomes in a person's cells. A human has 46 chromosomes in all but sex cells.
This is called a karyotype. It is a visual representation of an individual's chromosomes arranged according to their size, shape, and banding patterns, typically used to identify chromosomal abnormalities or disorders.
What is 'normal'? One person's normal is another's oddity. I would say that it's unusual, but not necessarily normal or abnormal.
Sex chromosomes X and Y are not homologous in a normal karyotype. This pair of chromosomes determines an individual's biological sex, with females having two X chromosomes and males having one X and one Y chromosome.
