HHP 1100 Lecture Notes - Lecture 3: Y Chromosome, Cell Division, Xyy Syndrome
Document Summary
Monosomy--one chromosome instead of a pair in one of the 23 positions. Trisomy--extra chromosome in one of the 23 positions. Whenever there is a y chromosome present that individual is a male. Breast development, individual may not have a lowering of the voice. May be presence of female secondary sex characteristics. These individuals do not develop female secondary sex characteristics withou. The cell cycle refers to processes associated with cell division to replace aging, damaged, Frequency of cell divisions varies based on the type of tissue you are looking at. Interphase: time between cell division (most time) a. b. c. Mitotic phase : produces two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the original (p thout treatment ed, or dead cells al (parent) cell. Mitotic phase : produces two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the original (p a. b. Cellular aging is a normal and continuous process. Reduced metabolic functions decreased ability to maintain homeostasis.
