What is a normal male karyotype?
The male karyotype has 46 chromosomes the same as the female karyotype:23 chromosomes are inherited from your father.
How many chromosome are shown in a normal human karyotype?
I believe the answer to your question is 23.
First 22 pairs of chromosomes in karyotype?
There are 23 pairs of chromosomes in a normal human karyotype.
What does it tell you about a person if you examine a human karyotype and it looks like there are two x chromosomes?
It means they are female.
What is achondroplasia's karyotype?
It is the same as a normal person's karyotype.
What is the difference between karyogram and karyotype?
karyogram is the picture of all chromosomes, karyotype is the description (eg. normal human female is 46, XX
How many autosomes are present in a normal human karyotype?
There are 46 chromosomes in a human Karyotype.
What is a normal male karyotype?
The male karyotype has 46 chromosomes the same as the female karyotype:23 chromosomes are inherited from your father.
Describe how the karyotype of an XXY human would differ from that of an XO human?
The karyotype of an XO human would be deficient one X chromosome, compared to that of a normal female, and it would result in a female. Normal human females only use one X chromosome, whereby one is inactivated, which is why an XO human is viable. An XXY human would have one extra X chromosome as compared to that of a normal male, and it would result in a male. Again, an X chromosome is inactivated, which is why an XXY human is viable. XO is referred to as Turner Syndrome. XXY is referred to as Klinefelter Syndrome.
How many chromosome are shown in a normal human karyotype?

A karyotype of a human female shows that she has only one sex chromosome what is the genotype for her condition?
XO
First 22 pairs of chromosomes in karyotype?
There are 23 pairs of chromosomes in a normal human karyotype.
What are heterosomes?
Heterosomes are the sex chromosomes, i.e.: the 23rd pair of chromosomes in a karyotype. In a human female these are XX, and in a human male they are XY.
What does it tell you about a person if you examine a human karyotype and it looks like there are two x chromosomes?
It means they are female.
Does your karyotype represent a male of a female?
The question is not really clear. A karyotype is the overall complement of chromosomes isolated from a cell or organism (eukaryotic). When the karyotype of a normal healthy female is prepared for viewing by a cytogeneticist, there are 22 pairs of autosomal chromosomes present (ie two of chromosome 1, two of chromosome 2 etc...). There is one additional pair of sex chromosomes (two copies of X). A normal healthy human male also has 22 pairs of autosomes but the pair of sex chromosomes is not matched but instead there is one X chromosome and one Y chromosome (which is smaller than the X). So, if you look at a karyotype that has been laid out - if the two sex chromosomes are different sizes (X and Y) then the karyotype is from a male, if however they are the same size (X and X) then the karyotype is from a female.
What is human karyotype?
A karyotype is defined as the chromosomes of a cell. The human karyotype has one pair of sex chromosomes and 22 pairs of autosomal chromosomes.
How many sex chromosomes does a human have?
In an average somatic (body) cell, two. and in human gametes there is , one all chromosomes in human body is , 46 chromosomes. in normal female somatic cell is (44+XX) . in normal male somatic cell (44+XY) in normal female gametes (22+X) in normal male gametes (22+X) or (22+Y) .
