What portion of the human Y chromosome is homologous to the human X chromosome?

The pseudoautosomal regions (PARs) at the tips of the Y chromosome are homologous to regions on the X chromosome. These PARs are responsible for pairing and recombination between the X and Y chromosomes during meiosis. About 5% of the Y chromosome is homologous to the X chromosome in humans.


What is a chromosome called with matching information?

A chromosome with matching information is called a homologous chromosome. Homologous chromosomes have the same genes at the same loci, although they may have different versions of those genes. These chromosomes are inherited, one from each parent.


What can homologous chromosomes be called?

chromosome pairs


Where does each chromosome in a pair of homologous chromosomes come from?

Each chromosome in a pair of homologous chromosomes is inherited from one parent. One chromosome comes from the mother (maternal) and the other from the father (paternal).

One of the two homologous strands of a chromosome?

A homologous strand of a chromosome is a duplicated copy of the original chromosome, formed during DNA replication. It contains the same genetic information as the original chromosome and is held together by a centromere. Homologous chromosomes play a key role in meiosis, where they pair up and exchange genetic material during crossing over.


If a segment of a chromosome breaks away and joins to a non-homologous chromosomes what is it called?

When a segment of a chromosome breaks away and joins a non-homologous chromosome, it is called a translocation. This can lead to gene disruptions and potentially cause genetic disorders.
