Biology! Hard, Help? Human Karyotype?? 10 points?

1.) The X and Y chromosomes are called the sex chromosomes because they determine the gender of a person. How do the X and Y chromosomes compare?

-The chromosomes are relatively the same size..

If it’s a female then she gets one X chromosome from the father and one from the mother.

If it’s a male then he gets an X chromosome from the mother and the Y from the father

-The X chromosome is much bigger in size than the Y chromosome.

If it’s a female then she gets one X chromosome from the father and one from the mother.

If it’s a male then he gets an X chromosome from the mother and the Y from the father

-The Y chromosome is much bigger in size than the X chromosome.

If it’s a female then she gets one X chromosome from the father and one from the mother.

If it’s a male then he gets an X chromosome from the mother and the Y from the father

-The X chromosome is much bigger in size than the Y chromosome.

If it’s a female then she gets one X chromosome from the father and one from the mother.

If it’s a male then he gets an Y chromosome from the mother and the X from the father

2.) How does the karyotype of subject B compare with that of subject A? What is the gender of subject B?

-Subject A and B both have 2 X chromosomes threrefor both A and B are females.

-Subject B has 2 X chromosomes whereas subject A has one X and one Y chromosome. Subject B is a female.

-Subject A has 2 X chromosomes whereas subject B has one X and one Y chromosome. Subject A is a female.

-Subject B has 2 Y chromosomes whereas subject A has one X and one Y chromosome. Subject B is a male.

3.) How does the karyotype subject C differ from the normal human karyotype? How many total chromosomes does this individual have?

-Subject C has 2 X chromosomes and 1 Y chromosome. That individual has 48 chromosomes in total.

-Subject C has 2 X chromosomes and 1 Y chromosome. That individual has 49 chromosomes in total.

-Subject C has 2 X chromosomes and 1 Y chromosome. That individual has 47 chromosomes in total.

-Subject C has 2 Y chromosomes and 1 X chromosome. That individual has 47 chromosomes in total.
