Assessing genetic inheritance and mutations using a case study of a boy with blue skin. The scenario highlights how genes control traits, the random assortment of chromosomes in offspring, and the impact of mutations on protein function. Students analyze karyotypes to infer genetic differences betwe

Karyotypes are photographic inventories of an individual's chromosomes, helping determine genetic sex and detect abnormalities. Common chromosomal conditions like Down syndrome, Klinefelter's syndrome, and Turner's syndrome are discussed, along with the impact of abnormal sex chromosomes on characte

Human cells have 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes, totaling 46. Karyotypes help diagnose chromosomal abnormalities by aligning chromosomes in size order. Nondisjunction during meiosis can lead to abnormal chromosome numbers in gametes. Disorders like Down Syndrome, XYY Syndrome,

The cell cycle is a fundamental process that allows cells to grow, divide, and reproduce, essential for growth, repair, and maintaining the balance of our bodies. It consists of stages like interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis, each with distinct functions. Interphase is a period of growth and devel
