What are sister chromatids? What is the process that forms two sister chromatids from a single chromosome? Explain how this process works.
which characteristics would be noted when looking at isochromosomes when karyotyping chromosomes?
Consult Figure 1, which shows a human karyotype with chromosomes arranged in order of decreasing size. Would you expect this cell to have any genes characterized as hemizygous? If so, what is an example of a hemizygous gene? On which chromosome would it be located?
