Thalassemia is carried on chromosome 11 and chromosome 16, depending on the type. The alpha-thalassemia gene is located on chromosome 16, while the beta-thalassemia gene is found on chromosome 11. Mutations in these genes affect the production of hemoglobin, leading to the various forms of thalassemia.
The chromosome carried only by the sperm is called the Y chromosome, which determines the male gender when combined with the X chromosome from the egg during fertilization.
Genes that are located on the same chromosome are called linked genes. These genes tend to be inherited together during cell division because they are physically close to each other on the same chromosome.
Meckel Syndrome (type 1)is an autosomal recessive trait carried on chromosome 17.
Beta-thalassemia is typically caused by mutations in the HBB gene located on chromosome 11. Common mutations include point mutations, deletions, or insertions in the HBB gene, leading to reduced or absent production of beta-globin chains in hemoglobin. These mutations disrupt the normal structure and function of hemoglobin, resulting in anemia and other symptoms associated with beta-thalassemia.
according to the chromosome theory of inheritance,genes are carried from parents to their offspring on chromosomes.
The chromosome carried only by the sperm is called the Y chromosome, which determines the male gender when combined with the X chromosome from the egg during fertilization.
The gene that causes cystic fibrosis is located on chromosome 7, which is an autosome, not a sex chromosome.

Meckel Syndrome (type 1)is an autosomal recessive trait carried on chromosome 17.
Traits like colorblindness, hemophilia, and Duchenne muscular dystrophy are carried on the X chromosome. These traits are caused by mutations in specific genes located on the X chromosome, such as the OPN1LW and OPN1MW genes for colorblindness and the F8 and F9 genes for hemophilia.
Beta-thalassemia is typically caused by mutations in the HBB gene located on chromosome 11. Common mutations include point mutations, deletions, or insertions in the HBB gene, leading to reduced or absent production of beta-globin chains in hemoglobin. These mutations disrupt the normal structure and function of hemoglobin, resulting in anemia and other symptoms associated with beta-thalassemia.
