- A karyotype provides meaningful information regarding the overall chromosome makeup of the cell. Translocations, deletions, inversions are some chromosome structural abnormalities that can be analysed along with chromosome numerical abnormalities.
A try-it-yourself activity will teach you how chromosomes should be arranged in order to further study these abnormalities.
- Learning objectives
- To arrange randomly displayed chromosomes in order to complete a karyotype.
- How to use the animation
- Click and drag each chromosome on the right onto the screen to complete the karyotype.
