Solved by a verified expert:1.What is the difference between a karyotype and a karyogram?A.Karyotypes and karyograms are terms that are used interchangeably to describe chromosome mappingB.Karyotypes describe the number of chromosomes and what they look like (size bands and centromere placement). Karyograms is the study of the whole set of chromosomes arranged in pairs by size, and position of the centromereC.Karyograms describe the number of chromosomes and what they look like (size bands and centromere placement). Karyotypes is the study of the whole set of chromosomes arranged in pairs by size, and position of the centromereD.Karyotypes are unstained chromosomes in interphase or prophase. Karyograms are stained chromosomes from metaphase2. Which is likely to disrupt the function of the most genes: a 500kb deletion, a 500kb inversion, or a 500kb translocation?A.DeletionB.InversionC.Translocation3. Serious disease syndromes are associated with trisomy of chromosome 21 (Down syndrome), 18 (Edwards syndrome) and 13 (Patau syndrome).What is the result of trisomy of the other chromosomes?A.no disease symptomsB.minor disease symptomsC.disease symptoms with varying severity based on genetic backgroundD.lethal early in development4. Why do so many geneticists focus on studying yeast, fruit flies, nematodes, mice or the small plant Arabidopsis?A.These pest organisms result in millions of dollars of damage and hurt the economy.B.They are ideal for modeling human disease since they have all the same organs.C.They have multiple features that allow for cheap, fast and efficient manipulation of genes and chromosomes.D.They are some of the few organisms in which mutations can be generated.5, Combination of alleles that independently assort is usually higher than the number of chromosomes becauseA.gene linkageB.crossing overC.segregationD.translocationE.jumping genes6.
