Down syndrome karyotype
7
Changes in Chromosome Number
Nondisjunction Result after fertilization: Trisomy Monosomy
8
Nondisjunction in Meiosis I
9
Nondisjunction in Meiosis II
10
Down Syndrome
11
Changes in Sex Chromosome Number
Y chromosome-determines maleness. SRY gene produces a testis-determining factor Caused by non-disjunction
12
Non-disjunction in Sex Chromosomes
Y chromosome-determines maleness. Results of non-disjunction?: XXX XXY XYY X0 0Y Survivable with problems Survivable with problems Survivable with problems Survivable with problems Lethal
13
Non-disjunction in Sex Chromosomes
Turner Syndrome --XO Klinefelter Syndrome—XXY Poly-X Females---XXX Jacobs Syndrome---XYY
14
Changes in Chromosome Structure
Mutation– a permanent genetic change. Chromosome mutation--change in chromosome structure. Types: Inversion Translocation Deletion Duplication

WHAT’S HAPPENING??

Sex-Linked Traits Traits controlled by genes on the X or Y chromosomes are sex-linked although most are unrelated to gender. An allele on the X chromosome that is in the region where the Y chromosome has no alleles will express even if recessive; it is termed X-linked. A female would have to have two recessive genes to express the trait; a male would only need one.
21
X-Linked Alleles The key for an X-linked problem shows the allele attached to the X as in: XB = normal vision Xb = color blindness. Females with the genotype XBXb are carriers because they appear to be normal but each son has a 50% chance of being color blind depending on which allele the son receives. XbXb and XbY are both colorblind.
