Biology 1202B Lecture Notes - Lecture 22: Trisomy, Cytogenetics, Karyotype
Document Summary
Who deinitions: genetics- the study of heredity, genomics- deined as the study of genes and their functions, and. 10. each pair consists of one maternal and one paternal chromosome. 11. one is going to be paternal and the other is going to be maternal. 13. look at idea of genetic health of an individual. 15. all of these bands are at speciic locations. 19. able to see speciic locations based on bands. 21. the way in which we deine the location of regions within the human genome. 24. there is an extra chromosome 21, trisomy 21= downs syndrome. 26. there are individuals that survive with extra small chromosomes. 27. the smaller chromosome, the less number of genes there will be, this is why peple can survive with trisomy 21. 29. approximate size of the genome (3 billion base pairs) known. 30. the sequence of a number of genes and genomic regions. 31. we knew how many chromosomes we have, that genes code for proteins.
